--------------------------------------

Amazingly, this was a happy experiment. In attempting to get difference textures to the many photos that I had taken that graduation night, I decided to turn-off the flash for this photo. However, during the slow shutter release, which archived the movement of all the subjects, a photographer to my left used her flash in the photo that she was taking. This isolated the two faces that I wanted to highlight as my subjects.

RESULT? A one-of-a-kind, once-in-a-lifetime photo! Truly Exciting! :)

You probably did the blur on purpose, but it looks too accidental to me
