Too much competing for attnetion here - the cones in the background, the onlookers, the speaker, etc. |

I love the energy portrayed here. |

great colors, but where's the motion? |
|
|

Lots of motion still in this colorful shot. |
|

This could have been a great stop motion. The position the subject is in does not give a strong impression that it was moving. |

Cool idea and subject matter, however, the background is distracting with the orange cones and all. Some cropping (maybe turning it into a portrait format) would have been helpful. |

If possible, shoot with the sun at your back to provide better lighting on the subject. |

Would like to see the bleachers 'disappear', and the cones too - atleast make me feel like I'm not gawing at an Indian dancer in a parking lot. bonus pts. for originality :) |

sad exploitation of the native american |

Great choice of subject -- it really gave you awesome colors and excitement. Were there any better angles you could have gotten to get a less distracting background? |

Good looking photo. I would like it better if the dancer had been facing the sun. |

nice colourful shot - traffic cones not kind to this pic. |
|

Nice colors. Cutting out some of the background (people, cones, etc.) would've been good. Guy with paper looks thrilled. |

Nice, too bad there is so much clutter in the background. |
|

Looks like you were in the right place at the right time. As constructive criticism, it probably would have been a little more pleasing to my eye if you would have used a veritcal crop, as the background tends to dominate the shot. Nice work. |
|

Great subject. I would have rated higher if you could have gotten a tighter shot on the dancer and eliminated the background stuff to a greater degree. Also get some fill light on the front of the dancer. |
|

Beautiful subject. Too bad you couldn't get him by himself. The people and the cones take away from your main attraction. |
|

I wish the costume didn't collide with and get lost in the croud behind it, I would have tried finding a different angle if it had been possible. You could get rid of a lot of distracting background (the people are looking off the frame) by framing it vertically. |
|

Not sure how fitting the background is. I suppose the unamused crowd is an interesting touch. |
|

wow... really nice fancy dancer. where was this taken? |
|
|
04/15/2002 01:56:00 PM |
Cool! I wish I could see the whole dance. Great photo! |
|
|

I feel it needs tighter cropping and a more unique perspective to eliminate the distracting background. The backgrounds can really hinder a great opportunity. |
|
|
04/15/2002 10:26:00 AM |
Colorful. Slightly out of focus. |
|
|
04/15/2002 10:13:00 AM |
I wish the audience hadn't looked away just then. Or maybe they are meant to mirror the cones one the other side... |
|
|
04/15/2002 09:50:00 AM |
there probably wasn't anything you could have done about it, but the background is distracting |
|
|
04/15/2002 09:47:00 AM |
Nice photo.. I would have liked to see the shot without the speaker. |
|
|
04/15/2002 09:21:00 AM |
So much more original "person" shot than the others. Thanks for not boring me with another "friend in street clothes" jumping up. |
|
|

The colors are great in this. And the stop action is good. The people in back are distracting though, but it's tough in instances like that to not get them. |
|
|
04/15/2002 07:38:00 AM |
background is too distracting for my liking |
|
|
04/15/2002 06:28:00 AM |
AWESOME choice:) My only critque is the busy area around the dancer distracts from him. However, I love it ! |
|
|

Kind'a blurry, although I don't get the BIG stopped motion in this one.... |
|
|

You chose a difficult subject to work with on stopped motion. Feathers at a distance like this are blurring and there isn't much you can do to stop it. The tassles on the costume seem to be stopped fairly well. The subject being off center with the granstand viewers off to the side make this a challenging framing situation as well. |

Nice subject. Very colorful and good action depiction. Could be vastly improved by cropping vertically (tight around subject) and using levels to brighten up overall. |
|

...distracting background |
|
|
04/15/2002 02:58:00 AM |
Lots of colours. Too much clutter in the background though - If you'd got lower and closer in you might have been able to exclude a lot of that |
