I don't like using the word 'cute' (it's over used!) but there is something about this one that made me think 'awww cute!' when I first saw it! ;)

But it's a great shot - right time, right place - and given that it doesn't appear to have been an ideal situation in which to have been taking photos (the light seems pretty harsh) I think it's a great job. Good composition & B&W really suits the scene.

Wow! What a photo! Awesome timing, the mood is dramatic. The backlight is handled well. BW is a good choice. I am struck by the contrast of expression of the bashful dancer with that of the sever monk in a soft bokeh. Excellent timing.
