My girlfriend performing with her aerial dance troop. They have one performance a year - just happened to be during this challenge! Shot on full manual with the ever-amazing 50mm f/1.4. Focus is unfortunately not perfect, but this was the most visually interesting shot so I went with it.
Elegant. Subject appears slightly OOF to me though. Maybe it is just my eyes after too much voting. Great use of colours and positioning of the main subject in the centre of the shot. 6
I love these acts in Cirque de Soliel (for example). As with some others I'd like to see more than 3 feet below her to show the potentially dangerous situation, and normally they do much more risky moves without hands, upside down that would more show working without a net.
Not bad but I don“t get in what setting this was taken from looking at this picture, think some more of the surroundings would have appealed more to me.
Nice capture - I don't mind the centered composition on this - The colours are nice too. Just let down by it's softness and some rather distracting white thing off to the right.
