About The line-up as the audience prepared themselves to be amazed! Each time this troupe took the stage there was an audible "Oooooh" from the crowd. Each time they danced with 100% enthusiasm and left to thunderous applause. No PS; No Crop.

Charming! In fact, I enjoy your entire portfolio, Doyle. You certainly know how to make your great sense of humour work when choosing your captions.

Thanks for sharing this one in particular.

I really like this one, Doyle. And I know how hard it is to capture, from my many failed attempts. I can't resist attaching a photo of my daughter's balletrina days -- now she's more into jazz and hip hop.

Thanks for all your feedback today.

Thanks so very much Dear Ray! You intelligent and well thought out critique is once again spot on! As it happens, I failed the Early Romanesque Math in Society Today class. OH! If I had only paid attention the V would have been an obvious answer . . . but Alas! what is one to do? The kids say today, "When will I ever use Algebra?" Now I can point to this shot and tell them I wondered when I would use ancient Roman numerical representations . . . and . . . LOOK at what happened to me. Internationally embarrased by a pre-grade school error!! THIS . . . Could happen . . . TO YOU! LoL!

But I was captivated by the adorable factor . . . so I plead lack of free thinking. :)

Doyle I <~~~~~

I have found a serious technical fault in the title Doyle.....surely (I know...don't call you Shirley) it should be I V I II??:)

Another oh so charming shot of this wonderful and adorable little troupe of dancers my dear friend. I love the positioning of the feet belonging to the little un 3rd from the right and the 2 in amongst the V with hands up to their mouths wondering what comes next......Fabulous, fabulous moments my good friend. An excellent trio of shots to come back to us with and I am filled with hope that you will keep visiting us in between your busy agendas. As you know, I too struggle to find time to follow my wants but heyho......'slife:) All the best Doyle and my very best wishes to Marny as well........Ray:)

It seems little girls may have just as much power over men as bigger girls . . . and don't kid yourself . . . they KNOW how to use it! My Cyd, whose picture was added to a comment above, often shows me her little finger . . . the one grandma says grandpa is wrapped around. :)

Which THREE are mine?? :@)

Actually, Cyd's friends and classmates might be considered "mine" I guess . . . but I only had one grandaughter in this recital (of the 3 - hmmmmm 3 granddaughters and three grandsons) . . . and she isn't in the shot. I posted a photo of her in response to an earlier comment - but they were all sooooo cute!

PS Michele - My angel isn't in these shots but with her group the lighting was such and her placement such that few quality shots happened . . . she performed only one dance. I have attached an after shot . . . you will note she seemed quite happy about the event!

Thanks Dearest Michele!
They had professional lighting, videographer and stage . . . and theatre. Amazing really. Never had a daughter this age - mine was 12 or so when I married Marlyce. Marny always said it was a good thing I didn't and I now think she's probably right . . . my granddaughter has me wrapped around her little finger as it is!! Too . . . WAY toooo cute!!

Warmest Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Love these photos! I had to laugh as I recalled when my now grown daughter Lisa was a child and on stage. No matter how many rehearsals: they always do their own thing. These are great photos and will bring a smile and a sigh to any parent or grandparent that has been in the audience for a recital. Thanks for all of them.

I love the portfolio name "Heartwarming".

Looks like they have some professional lighting on the stage and excellent lighting for your picture. They truly are adorable and each their own little prima ballerina.

Thanks for sharing! This one is my favorite.
