Challenge:Point of View (Classic Editing) Camera:Canon EOS-10D Location: Dance studio Date: Jan 12, 2004 Aperture: f/4.5 ISO: 100 Shutter: 1/45th Date Uploaded: Jan 13, 2004
From a photoshoot with a trained dancer. We shot for about 3 hours and I quickly discovered that I didn't have the lights to drive a photosession like this one in a large dance studio. Now I'm just saving up for my lights and backdrops.

I hope the dance position is done correctly - the image has a instructional quality to it. The superb muted colour is pleasant....... and extra point from me for elements of dance and human form....... a direct, simple and elegant point of view.
i like the idea here. feel using b/w or a duotone would have been a better fit. the colors really wash out the image (floor blends in with shoes,etc). with b/w you'd be able to concentrate more on the forms, the feet.
The feet are very nice. I like the from the floor point of veiw. The legs look strange to me though. Kind of 'not real' looking. Especially the right leg. I'm not sure why it looks like this, maybe it's the texture from the tights? They seem flat, like they have no dimensions, and depth. Your focus is really great on the feet, and the connection to the challenge is strong. A great idea for the challenge. ~Heather~
