youth dance festival Relations

When a dance performance is not all abstract of rhythm and movement, and letting me as a viewer to find the connection in its inner content, as touching life, or is enables me to interpret it as such, than my emotional link to it is what helps me to create and connect, this scene does it, Thanks for your thoughts,.

Please read explanation, thanks.

In my eye, I see nothing to do with dance, and were it not for the stage lighting would not even associate it with staged drama. I see a young man and the larger shadow of an older woman, who almost appears naked (oh yes, sometimes my imagination does get the best of me). He appears uncertain and apprehensive. This seems to be a drama of coming of age.

Thanks for your interpretation. I left the stage light as it was a dance performance, but not only, because figuratively speaking, it is lighting a scene of life's relations ( The woman shadow is his dance partner), that can have as many interpretations ,as the contents the viewer will bering with him, observing this scene.

 

Hello Pnina, I like the way you work with light to define the subject, and seek shadow to conceal it. Shalom.

Pnina, this is such a great composition because it is open to so many different interpretations. I guess one of these interpretations could be that of infatuation of a young man who is coming of age.

Excellent light and composition.Warm regards.Janusz.

You are becoming the stage director :-))

Pnina, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Best regards, Ruud.

 

Pnina, this is a great image. It looks like a detached relationship. The man in the front looks indifferent and acting not to care and the shadow of what appears to be a woman looks to be a scorned lover.

What is really cool too is the lighting coming at us and the foreground subject but a silhouette existing behind the lights instead of in front of it.

 

I hope you have a good holiday season and it was great meeting you this year.

 

Kirk

Spencer, nice interpretaion!

 

Adan, that is really open to interpretations, as much as the imagination enables eash one.

 

Janusaz abd Ruud, thanks you both.

 

Daily, I'm looking for a partner, are you ready ? ..... lol

 

Kirk, I think we wrote simultanously... Good interpretation, and nice observation of the BG. silhouette.

 

Thanks to all of you and,my best wishes to all of you for the holidays.

I'm late, but not for an interpretation, I hope.

 

I see like all two persons. One symbolizing sensuality (long hair, agitated gesture) - a woman; another, a young man, incapable of acting physically (arms near the body; shoulders lifted), fixed on the spot where he stands. The tricky thing about the scene is that the spotlight is on the guy whereas the women which is the acting partner of the couple is in the shadow. No dancing, but this is surely the theatre of a very old story.... Well done Pnina

Wonderfully composed. Another fine performance shot! Happy Holidays, pnina... Warm regards, Joe

Great image Pnina. Happy holidays to you and your family.

 

Thanks for all during this past year.

Joe, Marco, Afshin and Antanas, thanks all of you.

 

Season greetings to all of you!

Pnina, visually and conceptually stunning. That shadow is extremely mysterious, and his defensive pose heightens the mystery even more. Lovely light! Very best wishes for the season.

Very creative use of light. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Darren and Danielle Jones

It is so interesting to read the different way it is being interpreted by the different viewers.

 

Thanks so much Roger.

 

Darren and Danielle,and Pep.

Magical lighting & shadows effect, Pnina, HAPPY HOLIDAY & HAPPY SHOOTING IN 2OO8 ____BEST WISHES

Like a boy, mit abgeschnittenen Hosen, trying to protect himself from the shadow of the imposing woman behind him, like a standing turtle, resisting from running away... A picture, carved in the brain and evoking old memories, not from the best ones...

Happy holidays and best wishes for a bright 2008.

Karl

Thanks Rakesh and Richard!

 

Karl, interesting interpretation, I think that each of us viewers, coming to a photo, are bringing with us life experience we are caring, as our inner contents. some of them are good memories and some are sad and hard ones.

 

I think that if an image succeeds in provocing feelings, and evoke memories, it served its purpose, as even it is bad memories of the past it gives an index of our possibilities to grow and learn from them. It can be the photographer's aim or not, but the moment a photo is uploaded it has its own life, and speaks to different viewers in different ways.

 

Thanks and Best wishes to all of you.
