Thanks for viewing.

Beautiful

Just excellent work. Your skill as a photographer of the dance is evident here. The dance may be classical but your composition here is quite modern, I think. I like the nuanced color shifts very much.

Delight work, beautiful.

Fine shot.

Interesting.

Interesting composition and the excitement comes through.  Interesting perspective as well.  

To all of you, I'm thankful for your feedback.

Jack, to say the truth, I'm completely involved in the modern dance, so maybe even classical dance somehow has modern elements in my composition...thanks for writing it to me.;-))

The perspective as is , is because we were seating on the 4th floor ...I'm glad you liked it.( the short edit/delete is complicating things....)

Pnina, superb composition, exposure and perspective. This image reminds of Degas paintings.

Blurring my eyes, I can transform this easily into a string of actual swans swimming on a blue lake.  Your foray into classicism is wonderful.

Pnina, Swan Lake is one of my favorite ballets. I have seen it many times, the first time as a young child. So this brings back wonderful memories. Best wishes.

I like the way the dancers fill this frame better than "Dancing with Odette".  And your timing for placing the male dancer couldn't have been better.  I realize you didn't have the advantage of being able to move around but your choice of when to trip the shutter was excellent.  Everything within your control appears to have been done well. Great reward for your efforts.   Best, LM.
