 Students dancing on the centrum square in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Actual front page photo for the newspaper I work for, although then it only had one curve. Here I've made it a bit more DPC-friendly.

One of four front page photos I had this week, think this one fits the best in here.

I like the way the one dancer is looking into the camera, even though it's a candid shot

Can definately see this one as a photo to accompany an article. I think I might like to see the main subject a bit off of center.

Cute girl and strong sense of being part of the action. Playing with the curves may give you better skin tone.

Perhaps a little closer up on the faces of the two main dancers would have made for more interest.

Good capture for a lifesytles or A&E section. I'd like a bit of more info on where and why the dance was hapening. But overall, good capture.
