With a little help from DxO Photolab4

I am assuming this is at a wedding and not a ballroom dance competition. Next time, I would suggest adding a little fill flash. It would really brighten up the bride's face and also help cut some of the purple cast from the DJ lights.

Appreciate the tip.

Yes, wedding. I was a guest and did not want to fire off a flash that may interfere with the working photogs pics.

Honestly though, none of those aspects of the shot bother me. I’m ok with capturing the conditions as they were-color cast and all. I like the mood of the shot provided by the ambient lighting, and think it adds a bit of mystery often lost in stock and trade fill flash shots.

Now, if it was a paid gig I definitely would have taken a series with fill and maybe even a series sans flash and let them decide.

Thanks again!
