Tango the night away

These photographs were taken at a gala event held at Arabella Western Cape Hotel and Spa recently.  They were part of the entertainment for the evening.

I first starte shooting with flash, however the flash took the whole "feeling" away.  I wanted to capture more movement using motion blur.  The flash was switched off, used manual and set a lower shutter speed.  As I was using a telephoto lens, it was possible that the photos might be out of focus.  Took the chance and I am satisfied with the end product.

Lesson I learned during the evening.....rules are meant to be broken some times.
