... & of course you can't (generally) turn the onboard round to bounce the flash.

Wayhay, today was the second event and I am quite pleased that the pictures seemed to go a lot better, lighting was slightly better (it was in a theatre- so well lit) and I got about 340 shots through the day, I didnt use the external flash, and used the onboard, some of the shots with that looked a little dark (but more recoverable than overexposed). anyhow, I am shattered, I have been in a meeting for 7 hours taking pictures, and 2 hours drive at each end.
I have downloaded to my pc (will also download to the company server too tomorrow) but havent looked through yet.

Well there were still a few, but mostly I managed to work round them and get them from a distance when they werent looking. since I had had practice the first time i knew what sort of shot i was looking for too which helped, I reckon a much larger percentage are reasonable shots though.

yay out of the 340, over 200 keepers, and a nice animation from 3 frames showing the after dinner excercises, courtesy of one of our occupational health advisors (the excercises that is not the frames)

well I made that clip up from 3 frames running 1, 2, 3, 2 and then looped back to 1 again, so in that picture they will go on forever, that was just a bit of fun with the pictures.

this ones not quite as good as I moved the camera while taking it, but it does benefit from more comedy / tag line value.

Oops my finger slipped on the email button, I think these images may just go round like wildfire.
I do hope I still have a job come Monday - mind you with 6 weeks work and 3 weeks to do it in they would be right up the creek without a paddle if they did, the guy who organised all the meetings found them funny.
