Quoting from Wikipedia, Capoeira is "a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics and music, and is sometimes referred to as a game". The DC Capoeira group was preformed during at the Adam's Morgan Street Festival last Sunday. Shooting Capoeira gave me an opportunity to test my x100's ability to capture action. Unlike my D7000, the x100 is known to be weak at shooting action. To get past this weakness, I used the zone focus method to capture many of these shots. When using manual focus, the camera is much more responsive as there is no shutter lag.
Back in 2010, a good friend of mine suggested that I create a blog dedicated to my photography. I thought it would be a fun project so I went ahead and created this blog. Each post with its photos represent a personal inspiration. I hope my visitors enjoy my work.
