A little bit of the story behind that picture:
My daughter started her "ballet" lessons in one of the city parks in october, she loves it so far.
For the 3rd lesson my wife got her ballerina outfit, and I thought she was sooo cute that I had to take some pictures. I made her sit in the living room with a window to her left, I used an off camera flash bounced in the wall to fill the right side of her face. I used a 50/1.4 because I wanted the shallow DOF and the softy effect the Talumar goives, even though I had to be quite close to her.
The batteries of the flash were, however, dying and it didn;t fire in some of the shots, which I retook. So I ended up with about 14 shots of that afternoon. This is one of the shots without the fill flash, which after careful examination were the ones we decided to keep
Happy shooting
