And you did well !!! Beautifull !

VERY nice

Holy cow!

Thank You all. Not easy shooting in the dark in the rain and without flash. Fortuneately I was in the car shooting out an open window haha. And although I didn't get too wet, my car was soaked when the dancer jumped back in!

Great shot!

This is going to be hard to beat. Captivating. (The least you could have done was to get wet, too!!)

lovely ! powerfull! congrats!

beautiful!

THIS IS A FANTASTIC SHOT.
The light, the mood, the model, the story....
Excellent work Author!

stunning shot

Really great shot.. Pity for the big objet in background .. if you could use photoshop and remove it! Nevertheless, a truly beautiful image, an elegant figure and beautiful lights..

Unfortunately that object was a neccesity as it holds the light source ... It's the lamppost base. Finding an empty parking lot was a challenge on short notice! Will def fix it if I print it though. Thanks!

Great work fantastic

Utterly breathtaking!

Lovely!

Just wonderful, all the white with this style of Dancing is just perfect =)

Extremely well made b&w, impressive shot and light tones. Great job author. Good luck

Thanks all I feel I had an unfair advantage - not everyone has a professional ballerina in the family.

Nice setup and photo

I think the composition would look better with the umbrella actually being used as an umbrella.

Very cool creative shot, I think the sunbrella is used well here, you can see the beautiful design on it, plus she is looking to see if the train is coming naturally tilting the sunbrella to the back. Well done.

Great set up and shot -love it

Nice composition, I would say out of the ordinary. Good luck author
