Holy communion again....

Weeks ago I was asked to do some photos for a Munich church - for the first holy communion. And this was not a privat photoshooting - it was an offical shooting as they want to avoid all parents standing in front of their kids and do some photos. The kids wouldn't concentrate on their first communion so now in most of the churches here it isn't allowed anymore to do photos when there are some parochial ceremonies. (From the churchs view I can understand as then there is always a disturbance during these cereomnies - from a mothers or involved peoples view I think its hard not to take pics from your little one who is standing in front ot the pastor....

First thought yesterday was yipppeee - sun is shining and there will be a good light at church as the roof of the church has some windows so the sun can come right in front of the altar and the children. Bad luck - the sun was there and the children always blinked with their eyes. Then my camera went wild because with all those white dresses and the sun on it the camera was confused - too bright because of the white dresses - background too dark - aaahhhh - I really did sweat yesterday...and I am not soooo happy with the result - but I couldn't ask for doing the holy communion again on another day :)

This is the best shot so far - (haven't been through all my 400 pics) I love the sun on the girls hair in the back...
See what the sun did - dresses are nice white but you can't recognize anyting in the background....
More when I am done with checking all pics....




See how difficult it was - bright and dark...
