I got an email about this event and was very curious about it. Decided to get my cameras, the Pentax K100D with its 18-55 mm and the Canon EOS D60 with it’s 80- 200 mm EF lens. Found the place pretty easily because the University where the competition took place wasn’t far from the Chisinau Circus, inside the Sports University. When I got there the play already had started. There were not a lot of fans, I was greeted by a person who gave me a small flag. It was saying about the “Motivatie” NGO which is organizing all kind of events for people with disabilities. I was very amazed and pleased that these kind of organizations exist. Found a place for shooting and guess what…my 80-200 mm lens is not working…when I mounted it to the Canon it was giving a kind of noise from the motor and the camera showed the Error 99. Well, what the hell, started to shoot with the 18-55 mm which wasn’t very amuzing and professional.. :)

Here is what I ended up with:
