There is nothing that I enjoy more than photography of dancers. Two great artforms together. You just can't top that Thanks for sharing

Photographing dancers must be great. I'd like to try someday. Anyways.

You've captured a great moment here. The composition's very effective, powerful, and the plain white background works wonderfully. And I like how there's a little red showing in the right dancer's dress, it adds to the photo. There could be so many stories to this shot, so many different interpretations and I bet everyone have their own. To me my first thought was a bullfight. But there's also something very jealous in there. Great work, I'd say. More dancer photos coming up?

Thanks for the comment! I'm glad you like it! I was definitely a wonderful experience to work with these two. I actually have a whole gallery of these two on my website ([link] ). I'm not sure if I will be posting any more of them here on DA though... I do however have another photo session with dancers coming up in mid August, so maybe there will be some photos from then.

On the compositional side by creating two triangles it is amazing! And they bring so much movement and life to the shot.

Very nice composition and contrast. I love that the pushing motion is toward the edge of the frame and that she looks like she is resisting. Creates a delicate balance.

Neukku [2006-06-25 16:33:17 +0000 UTC]

Yep, I do like this one. It's been a while from you're last piece. The neutral background is nice and really contrasts with the dark outfits of the dancers. Intentional I think. This is a nice change to the portraits I've been seeing here lately! The pose is interesting and the title fitting.

Did you shoot this one on film? Just asking out of interest. The square form makes the composition tight, but works well with this photo. Reminds of 6x6 film.

Wow, that's a really nice pose you captured! I also like how the colours aren't brilliant, which kinda makes it striking. Um...I don't know what I'm saying. Lol.
