I was asked if I would take pictures at the Church’s annual father daughter dance. I’m glad I did as I managed to get several nice portraits. This one is my favorite from the afternoon’s shoot. Here are a sample of the afternoon’s pictures.

Ray concentrating on folding table decorations.
I volunteered to go with the Youth Group to the annual Episcopal Diocese of West Missouri Youths’ Bishop’s Ball 2010. Held this year in Kansas City. Then I was asked if I’d mind going early and help get things ready. I enjoy helping out, and I like the driving so it’s not a problem. Between shifting tables and preparing them for the ball I took a few pictures. This is my favourite picture from the weekend. It’s a shame I didn’t notice the decoration was upside down. However, I resisted the temptation to put it right in Photoshop.

I noticed the light streaming through the stained glass window onto the bible and chair by the Altar. Despite the low light and no tripod (why is it I carry a tripod around nearly all the time, but when I need one I leave it behind?) I decided to try and capture the play of light. I knew I couldn’t come close to the atmosphere of the moment, but I do like the result.

I find this modern sculpture rather menacing. There are two of them, one at either end of the shopping precinct.
The sculpture is meant to represent the breaking sea – and not a claw which is more how it appears to me.
