Critique Club critique:
Composition/Content: Great subject and colors. Great idea too. The eye wants to go to the ballerina's face but goes to the two bright spots on top of her head and to the right of her. I would like to have seen the ballerina's arm fully in the picture.
Lighting: The lighter spots in the picture take the eye away from the ballerina. Otherwise, the lighting is right on.
Background: The background colors give the picture life.
Camera Work/Technical: It looks like you either started with the ballerina on the right and moved it left, or the camera on the left and moved it right. In either case it produced the same thing, part of the blur on top of the ballerina. If you started with the ballerina on the right and moved it to the left to end up in the position it is in, you might have avoided the blur being on top of the ballerina. Or, you might have done what indigo997 suggested below. Exposure is good.
Digital Processing: Colors, saturation and contrast look good.
My Opinion: You have all the makings of a great picture, just needed to change the center of interest. Nice job. |

| Nice abstract colors, a very moody image. Perhaps would have been neater if the ballerina's image was a less transluscent. |

| I like the colors in this picture. I thought, when I saw it in the thumbnail, that it was a real human ballerina. |

| interesting abstraction. A little too much light blur though. The figurine looks too plastic as well. |

| I think this was a good idea tho I don't really understand the blur being all over the place. I thought these girls usually just go around in circles. I'd like to see her more clearly. Did you try to use a flash to stop her motion and then leave the shutter open to catch the motion trail? |
