Very, very interesting shot Geof,
These people looks so high. Well captured.
Thanks for sharing,
Deyan

Well timed shot Geof to catch the dancer with both feet off the ground. The red robes stand out well against the background.

Hi Geoff,

You captured the moment very well! The dancer jumping adds a lot of motion to the image.

And, you too bass player? Great!! (In my case, somehow the guitar gained some terrain... but still keep my old bass and from time to time play it).

Best regards,
Carlos

It must have been very exciting to watch a ritual like this. Very good shot!!!

Congratulations on your 1000th criteque point. Just amazing how high those people can jump. Must be quite amazing to see this type of performance.
Well done
Darren
