[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These Zulu dancers were performing outside the Rosebank African market. They were only using their hands, voices and shakers on their feet, no other instruments and it was incredible.

Hello, Wanda -
The great thing about this photo is that you made the hands of the dancers the centerpiece. That's where the suggestion of movement and energy is contained. Good choice in this composition.

Dag Wanda,
Een soort foto wat we niet erg vaak zien hier op TE, maar juist daarom boeiend om op ons in te laten werken. De kleuren van hrt polsbandje vind ik erg mooi, maar de huidtinten verraden een perfecte belichting...prima stukje werk.
Groetjes, Henk
