Lybil, thats a good action picture.
Very well captured shot that has the essence of the event. Not only is she pretty but has such a nice dancing pose. The blur of motion helps in giving the impact of dance.

My only ask here would be for a shallow DOF. That would focus stronger on her. Also the background poster is a bit distracting.
Nice shot on the whole.

Emir, thats a nice shot.
But to be honest I think the the composition could have been better.
Some ideas:
- U could have tried a little off-centre composition.
- You could have tried the shot a little lower height perspective..

This is nothing to take away from this interesting shot, but ideas for your next one. :)
Cheers.

Thats a lovely wide shot.
I assume you shot it at 18 mm.
Good effect here to see.

Wonderful...
What an expressive shot !
Loved it.
1. The composition is nice.
2. The exposure is just nice.. Some would feel its a little dark, but then we would have lost out on the brilliant sky in the background.

I would have liked a more innovative frame though. The thick black one doesnt do justice to this picture.

Thats an eye catching shot, Herb.
Lovely colors.
And the window inside the darkness adds an element to the picture.
Quite an interesting shot.

Well thats an interesting shot.
What is more interesting is that I attempted a similar shot sometime back.

Technically this one is over exposed as you know. But you could have tried it as a Black and White version to enhance its theme.

Interesting nonetheless.

Thats a wow shot.
What lovely colors you have captured.
Interestingly all the pillars have different colors on them.

What I find distracting here, is the extreme left of the frame. The half statue in the darkness is distracting. I would have framed it leaving that out and starting with the vertical corner line merging with the frame.

But taking nothing away from your own lovely composition.

amazing shot.
What lovely colors.. real warm.
Perfect exposure..

I tend to think that it is a tad oversharpened.
Lovely..
