[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Tango is a social dance form that originated in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The musical styles that evolved together with the dance are also known as "tango". Early tango was known as tango criollo or simply tango. Today, there are many tango dance styles including Argentine tango, ballroom tango (American and International styles), Finnish tango, Chinese tango, and vintage tangos. The Argentine tango is regarded as the "authentic" tango since it is closest to that originally danced in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Music and dance elements of tango are popular in activities related to dancing, such as figure skating, synchronized swimming, etc., because of its dramatic feeling and rich opportunities for improvisation on the eternal topic of love.

Hi Daniel
very nice capture of these dancers
beautiful picture
the expressions well captured
I love seeing this dance

Dancing seems to be in revival mode in many places. Good close up and message. The lady doesn't have the black hair we expect, but is gives a great message, anyone can have fun learning the Tango. Well done.

Hi daniel, nice photo and nice notice about this world fenomen- tango. TFS

We can really feel something in the dancers' glance. Although it's a bit dark in the background, it's a very powerful photo. Tango is really magic...

Hi Daniel,

You have shown a beautiful mood here. The expressions are well captured. The composition is good and the colors are nice. TFS.

I love Tango!
Hi Daniel,
In this pic. we can not see the whole bodies, and the complete figure. But the passion in their eyes, her hand, explains everything. Flu background and live colors are also perfect. Full of tango passion..
regards duygu

Great shot daniel:))))
You captured the most expressive moment I guess.
I like the womans expression and she seems to be very moved by this dance.

Great job.
Thanks, Agnieszka

hola daniel,
a very important image: simple motif but so well presented, tight crop, good colours, just a bit more out-of focus background would make it even better i think;
but still - very nice work;
have a nice day,
jerzy

Hey Daniel,

a very good Argentinian photo. The tango is the symbol of that country. passion, heat, romance. You captured that feeling in this photo really well. Especially on the face of the woman, theres so much passion there.

Tango...that is something I cannot do, is it physic thing or mental thing, ha ha. I love watching Tangos though, really beautiful and the musics are very nice.

You captured the right moment in the frame, their faces come close to each others, the lady closed her eyes, the man showing a little of his face to us.. perfect composition. I like the colour balances here too.

A romantic and steamy image. I think the tango is all about passion and you have captured that well. Nice tight crop

Salut Daniel,

J'adore dancer et le tango c'est une des dances le plus belles! Tu as capture l'esprit de cette dance et l'expression passionee des danceurs. J'adore le plan cere de cette photo sur les faces.

A+

Flavia

Hola Daniel. Me encanta la musica tango, particularmente Astor Piazzolla (es lo maximo!) y ahora hay muchos grupos de "Electro-Tango," como Tanghetto y Carlos Libedinsky, son buenisimos. Tu foto esta buena, hay el momento seductor y los colores. Me gusta que no hay rojo en esta foto, muchas veces las fotos de tango hay rojo, pero tuya es distinta, con mas verde, el color de madera, me gusta mucho. Muy bien hecho.

Daniel bonsoir - tu as merveilleusement saisi ces danseurs - très jolie photo et en plus, j'aime beaucoup le tango (je trouve que c'est une musique de l'âme) -
Merci et bonne soirée
Gaby

Hola, Daniel,
What draws me to this shot is the woman's hand, so passionately holding on to the man's back, as well as their expression filled with heat... great moment, indeed tango is one of the most sensual of dances, imho, fantastic moment

Bonsoir Daniel,
Très belle photo de ce couple de danseur de TANGO.
J'aime beaucoup l'attitude des deux personnages qui sont entrainés par le rythme de la musique.
le cadrage est aux petits oignons!
Félicitation
Thierry

Bonsoir Daniel,
tout à fait expressifs tes deux personnages. Et pour la dame en tout cas, on perçoit bien la concentration sur la danse et le partenaire.
Je ne danse pas le tango, mais un très bon souvenirs :un film de "30 ans" sans une ride : l'acrobate de JP Pollet avec Claude Melki qui incarne complètement le tango ...
Bernard

A full of passion and so well composed picture Daniel, ..a really well done picture, compliments!!

happy week,
Fabio.

beautiful Daniel, i just love these type of Tango shots.. i would like to shoot these scenes one day too in the future i hope.. (when i go to Argentina in an unknown future
i mean! lol!)
Great colours and expressions.. Very good work
take care.

Excelente foto Daniel, porque transmite -a mi criterio- la pasión con que se baila el tango, y que se capta perfectamente en los rostros de esta pareja.

Muy buena toma...
