Critique Club Review:

I'm afraid I have to join the chorus here. The motion blur, makes this look more like an out of focus snap shot, than a soft focus picture. Soft focus shots usually come out, welll... soft sort of dreamy, magical, mystical, pick one, fantasy, what have you. The black and white makes the picture harder and colder. Dancing would seem to be a warmer softer subject. Thus the picture tells a tale that seems to be the opposite of what one might think it should.

It is an interesting photo, and with a sharper focus, would work for a different challenge. It just has a hard time working here.

Potentially could be a very interesting photo, but the position of the feet is not suggesting a beautiful dance, just some kind of an awkward step...

To much out of focus even for this soft focus contest.

I like the movement in the far leg which helps with your title 'Dancing' but for me this image is a little too blurry

I'm afraid that motion blur and camera shake are not the same as soft focus.

Soft focus don´t mean the lack of it.

It is a tad too OOF for me it is more harsh than soft. The feet/shoes are not very appealing as a main subject. 4
