....expression....

Spanish dancing Flamenco, is part of the culture as is the toreadors, different kind of movements though....Expression of face go's hand in hand with the movement style.

 

Thanks for your impression.

 

 

Thanks

Very expressive image. Best regards.

Nice painting with light. Tones are superb and she has the typical expression of a Flamenco's dancer. It looks like I can hear the sound of her heels taping the floor... Regards.

As impressive as your earlier posting. Compliments and regards, El

excellent I love the intense look - bravo

Very good composition and capture of expressions,Pnina.

Pnina, the focus makes tihs image - she is intense, he is mysterious. This gives a nice contrast to their characters. I also like the b&w which increases the effect.

Beautiful Capture Pnina.

Regards

BW works here well. Very expressive captured. BR Joerg

Wonderfully composed. Very fine shot, Pnina. Warm regards...

I love the light and the B&W is great!

 

I just saw my daughter in a play today and the lighting was so difficult to take pictures because it was a high school. I thought of you and how the lighting is always so wonderful where you take your pictures. :)

Great BW, Composition and expression! Congrats!

All of you!

 

Micki, nice to see you again, light is difficult where I photo dance as well, it needed a lot of trial and error till I have found the technic that works best. Try a high ISO ( 800-1000) ,under exposed - 1 and even -2, try to find places on the scene where the light is not on its highest strenght. try till you will find the right set up of your camera, I work mostly with my 70-200 mm lens, not too close to the stage.I work with Raw files.

 

It is my technic, but you can try another set up.

 

 

Dimitris, nice to read you here again, welcome.

I love how you composed this image and the expression you captured, I can feel the passion of this dance... The light is great too and B&W works perfect. Very nice.

I never thought about that. When I post the pictures on the website I will upload I will let you know about them and give you the link.

 

I did answer your question to the sharpness on my photo. I hate the compression here so I did something stupid. (shamefully). :)

 

 

Their powerful expressions & motion are the element that caught viewers' attention.

... like a hook to her shoulder, the angle and curve accentuate the motion. I envy your ability to shoot dance, Pnina ... actually let me restate that - I admire your ability to shoot dance.

The implied motion and emotion is expertly captured by your eye. Nice!

Teresa , Cherlyn and Joe,expression is an important part of the Spanish dance.

 

Micki, you are right about compression that sometimes create, undesirable results.

 

Dennis, thanks, I admire as well your work with the Romanesque cathedrals , each with his own way of expression....;-))

Strong and intense. You captured the dancers in the ecstasy of the moment.

Excellent...-
