Shot at a slow 1/20th of a second to get the Coyote Ugly sign to glow (ISO 800). Used Neat Image to clean up the noise.
I loved the film Coyote Ugly, in large part due to the music in the film. Since this challenge is for music ... it will be interesting to see how many people "get it" ... seeing the girls up on the bar dancing, of course, requires music. And I can't help but think of the song "Can't Fight the Moonlight" when I think of Coyote Ugly.
So... how many Coyote Ugly fans are out there? If there are a lot, maybe the picture will do well. Otherwise I'm guessing it will tank. But I just had to try it and see! :-)

It appears more like a catwalk than a dance in the image, and the definition and lighting just aren't enough to raise this above a snapshot for me. I love the setting, and there is a good energy to the photo.
Good capture in a darkened space. The composition worked out well, with the sign across the top and enough detail in the background and not too much digital noise or the plasticising effect of removing noise. And oh yeah, girls dancing on a bar :)
I understand the idea of having both - the girls and the 'coyote ugly' sign in the pic.
Unfortunatelly doing so caused you to leave a great gap in the middle of the pic, which is basicly waisted.
Maybe another angle would help. 5
