Photographer's Note
Loughborough Mela - a spontaneous dance duo from two real movers - the guy dances with the band on stage and the young woman is a solo dancer - together they wove some magic!!

I like the pov of this shot. b&w treatment works well obviously. I think it's a shame his hand and shoe have been cut off. But it does give a sense of the movement. You've cauaght night expressions too. Rgds, Leilani

I can only imagine how you managed to take this frame! Lying stretched on the ground peering through the vf looking up their legs! :-) Those rectilinear cables at the top are essential elements to complement and contrast the curves of the dancers. Excellent stuff.

i agree with animesh - the cables make for a graphical ceiling covering this shapin' scene...i think you did nothing of that sort of lying on the florr, you simply stood in front of the stage with your ultra-wide lens hunting for the right moment in a right place...and you succeeded...
great work,
best, j.

Nice use of the wide angle here Kev. The tones are very nice as well. Through in a bit of motion blur and expressions of joy...quite a ,eal you've cooked up here!

Really smart use of the vertical here, Kev with smashing results - nice touch of motion blur in the fellow's pant legs and a degree of complicity between you and the dancers whch is, uh... usually lacking in my snaps ;o)

There is something that I like of this photo, their gesture, their actitude. Beside, they reminds me to one of my favourite restaurants of Berlin, one located at the old house of Bertol Bretch, there is a drawn at the gate and this two people has a similar position. Take care all of you.
