vanishing point by lsdsoft

Jimbobedsel: You must be a mountain climber. Are you going to attempt Everest? LOL. Fantastic shot.

Toto_san: Amazing

Heroictitof: Breathtaking photo !!
Thanks a lot for sharing.

luckyshot: This photo is of great interest both for its artistic merit and for the harsh scene being depicted. From the dense cloud cover, it appears that the sun appears briefly, though filtered by thinner clouds, and you caught one of those moments. With that the shadows add to the drama of the ice, snow and rock. Very well done! Thad

A Little Girl's Dream by dancer3660

zionbill: Nice image, ditto on Jim's DOF comment. I love dancing, I could watch it all day long. :)

twinkel: Congratulations :o)

DTwiegraphics: I like how there is a "deeper" meaning to this shot for you.

purmusic: :o)

You're a dancer? Really?

Kidding, kidding.

Could tell by some of your earlier images by the positions/posturing you assumed. Of which, I forget now (might have been 'first position' that I am recalling in one of yours.)

That stuff aside ... I like the DOF you employed here.

And of course, me, my fingers and pea brain have a suggestion ... hope you don't mind. As I was just thinking about this myself.

Your lighting source.

The 'magical hours of light', could still be used.

I found that the combination of early morning light in my case, as the living room is the room that gets hit by it (easterly'ish orientation) and achieves a warm, lovely glow ... diffused by the curtains that I have hanging ... really kicks things up a notch or two inside.

A companion image to your photo here, perhaps?

As the light quality presented here resembles, to my eyes, that of stage lighting. It works, of course on that level and maybe as you intended.

The background figurine looks like Royal Doulton, but I am not familiar with that of the one taking center stage? (Just curious, that's all.)


Last words, don't underestimate passion. That is def something that does translate on stage. And ... to your audience.

Much like your image here. :o)
