    Thanks for all the nice comments. Just so you all know... #2 is not a photoshopped effect... The white balance and exposure where tweeked in NC4 and a bit of sharpening and noise reduction were also done that's it.
    I shot it from the lighting booth of the auditorium, using my Sigma 120-300 f/2.8. The lighting is very low at these shows so I set the camera in apature mode and then pray for enough shutter speed...(1/40 @1600 ISO, 200mm...on a tripod)
    The focal point was on the center dancer who hit and held that position for a few counts while the other dancers continued to move around her...
    Thanks again... I think this one will end up hanging the the dance studio...
