 OK, first things first.. they are dolls.. A grown may walking in to Toys 'R' Us and buying two dolls. The things I do for DPChallenge. I wonder if anyone commenting guessed? Anyway, shot mostly with torches, a bit of burning to emphasize and add to the mirror balls beams on the floor.. that's about it!

Great idea. I feel that the figures in the background have been "abstracted" just a little too much. I believe they would have more impact on the image if they were a little more recognizable.

Love the story that this picture tell about! The couple should though be litle bit more in focus. 8

fantastic point of view - very creative angle for the shot! I really wish the couple was either not so darkly lit or so out of focus or both, however, because without your title I might not have recognized them as people. this is a great idea with good lighting, but suffers slightly in the execution.

Excellent perspective shot. I love the way you've concentrated your shot on the mirror (meets the challenge) yet the out of focus dancers addl a story to the shot. Actuall its nostalgic for me......highschool dances under the mirrored ball lighting effect......ahhhh to be young again. -9

This would a great DOF shot (sans people) but it's extremely difficult to make out what they are doing since they are so blurry.

Too abstract for my taste.

Is that Barbie and Ken down there? Hmm...I'd prefer to have a little more clarify on that piece of the image since it was included in the title.
