Like my previous post, this cute photo was taken at the Pegasus Parade Float Preview. Her clown name was Pop-Sicle. I actually stalked this poor girl for a while that night. The camera I was using was still relatively new to me and I couldn't get the settings right. All the pictures were bad! Too bright! Too dark! Too blurry! So I just kept taking her photo until I got something less horrible than the rest. I realize now that my problem was how low I had the ISO (film speed) set, and how the artificial lights in the ceiling affected the shot. Unfortunately, this clown paid the price for my ignorance. She was a real sweetie for putting up with me so I hope she didn't develop any psychological complexes as a result. If so, then I can take some small satisfaction in knowing I have a photo of 'pre-asylum' Pop-Sicle. (Nikon D300, 55mm, f/2.8, 1/60, ISO 200)
