So I used to dance, but really was more of a gymnast than a ballerina, however, I did take several ballet classes to become a better gymnast. Now I dabble with the piano, mostly because my kids take lessons, and I wanted to learn how to play too. I can play several simple songs....nothing to elaborate.
POST CHALLENGE: .....so I made a stupid mistake. I can't find the original for this entry. I usually always first put all my images onto my external hard-drive...then work from there. My external hard-drive is full, so I just left them on the card. I did save the edited ones (which was just four) but I left the originals on the SD card....thinking that "I need to transfer those over to my new hard-drive I bought three weeks ago"....well I never did.....days later I forgot that I had not transferred the images and deleted them and shot just a few images around the house. Sooooo... I used a recovery program to see if the images can be recovered. I have found only about half of them on the recovery software. I do have an image that was shot three frames before the challenge image, and it looks the same when cropped, but I do know it is not the original image without the crop. I can't seem to find the one's that I took near the end of the session, probably written over by the few images I shot around the house. The recovery software did find about 1170 files, so I am going to go through all the images to see if it is in there somewhere. Thinking it is not.....so a DQ for me if I can't find it.
LESSON LEARNED: Get up off your lazy bum, and walk across the room to retrieve the new hard-drive, then walk the 20 feet back to your computer, unwrap the hard-drive, plug it in, sit down, copy and paste the images onto the hard-dirve, then edit them. Don't forget! Can Grog hit me over the head with his club?

the framing is perfect here with a delicate lighting that suits the subject very well. I hope you will spot edit out those annoying bits of fluff above the key guard after the challenge.
