Dance of the Six Photo

Photographer’s Note

The challenge was to find a right angle and timing to catch these six without overlapping and in some interesting pose, despite the fact that they were moving quite fast.

As you can see, the "young audience" was delighted.

St. Rupert celebrations in Salzburg; St. Rupert (660-710) is the founder of the city.

Hi Daniel,
hilarious outfits.
The timing is fantastic, the blurred feet are great.
The age of the audience is very remarkable(or not) indeed.
Regards, gerrit

Hi Daniel,
You said it all. No one is behind somebody else and timing is also perfect considering those legs on the air. Always interesting to see local traditions from times before global TV culture. I've spend quite some time on Alpine regions and still haven't seen such very often.

Difficult image, hard to take, but successful. Full of movement and divided in distinct planes.

Hi Daniel,

For a moment I thought you had make a picture of the same group I saw in September in Chamonix, but that leather-trousered company came from Garmich Partenkirchen.
I think every self-respecting village has its own party in that region.
