Six legs

Thanks Rosina,
xoxo

Thank you again, I really am glad you like these shots.

I’ll say, they great dancers too.

Thanks Tots, its a nice effect, I am glad you like it.

There are but it just seemed a bit of a bother.

Thanks Jane, the light really lent itself to mono – I’m glad really.

Thanks so much Nick, I am flattered. I really appreciate the kind words.

Thankyou for that – I’m glad you like it.

Thanks so much Matt, I so glad you like it, I have a few more on the way too.

Thanks so much Di, I see there is a 2 per day limit so I will add this to dance tomorrow.

No worries Simone – I’ve done the same thing countless times myself. It is also flattering to think that it could also be confused with one of Matts photos – he is brilliant.Thanks for the kind words too.

Thanks Molly, I’m glad you like it – I think it flows well.

Thank you Sarah – no doubt about those Ballerinas.

Thanks Christian – I really appreciate that.

Thanks Nicole!

Thank you, I must admit to being really happy with the result on this one. Thanks for taking the time to look to.

Thanks Monica, much appreciated. Love your work too by the way!

Well thank you Ruby, I am so glad you like it, I must admit I really like it myself!

Merci remi!

Thanks again Steve, I really liked that gentle sense of movement in the legs, it is nice to see just a bit to inject a bit of verve.

Thanks so much and thank you for the two favouritings as well !

Thanks again Sylvia – mwah!

Thanks Wendy, hows the ugh boot and mini set going?

Thanks so much, I really appreciate the kind words (especially the again part!).

Thanks Tara, funny that it is so bland in colour but the mono seems much more suited.

Thanks Moshen, I must admit Ballerinas are fascinating – I’d like to do some more work with them.

Thanks so much John, just having a look at your work now.

Thanks Susi, I was marked down on that very fact in a comp. My argument is the movement adds a sense of life to the photo. I am glad you like it.

Exactly, clarity is not the be all and end all.

Thanks again Jules, I really like this image, I am glad you like it too. I am hoping to do more at some stage soon.

Thank you Braedene, the timing an elegance in movement of these girls is amazing. I am really glad you like this shot (it is a personal fav!).

Thanks Graham, I am really glad you like these – they are a personal fav for me too.

Yep, bloody young people! Thanks again for your interest and comment.

Thanks again, I am so glad you like these. I agreed to help a friend out at a shoot (no money) and it was a real treat to be able to go and capture these images.

Thanks David, the light was very challenging and actually aided with the movement blur. I highly recommend trying to access a dance studio – it is a really great exercise.

Thank you, I really appreciate you saying so.

Thanks again for the lovely comment and favouriting. I will head over and check out your portfolio shortly.

Thanks Linda, very nice of you to say so!

Thanks Matt, much appreciated mate. I would like to have another crack at capturing dance again soon.

Thank you very much! I’ll head over and look at your work shortly.

Thanks Cindy, I am so glad you like this shot also. Thanks for favouriting too.

Good stuff, you should get some dance photos! ;-)

Thanks David, I am so glad you like it.

Thanks Brian, I really appreciate the comment and the favouriting.

Thanks Justine – for the lovely comment and favouriting – you’ve made my day.

Thanks Dragomir, much appreciated mate.

Thanks Kathy, the lighting here was really difficult and pushed the lens and camera to its boundary – a little less light and I wouldn’t have one of my own favs.

Ha ha ha – I thought it might evoke that feeling in someone. I went back to self defence training in my mid 30’s after being inspired back to it, hit the deck the first time and decided it is better to watch other people.

Thanks so much, the girls deserve the credit though – htey were amazing to watch.

Ha ha ha, you know I have done exactly the same thing a few times. I see the image again somewhere and I just get the compulsion to re-comment. That fact that you have really is a great honour. Thanks so much.

Thanks so much Amanda, so nice of you to say so. It’s a bit of a personal fav as it were. I’ll pop over to your work when I get home.
Simon.

Thanks so much Sherstin and thanks for the favouritings too – I really appreciate it.

I saw the 7th leg and used it as a toll to see how many people paid more than a cursory glance at the image. I have to tell you that I am very honoured that this image would remind you of Degas. The girls are very elegant and I hope to do more soon.

Thanks so much John, that is the nicest comment I have ever had. The shot was basically as taken but converted to mono and tweaked a fraction in PS. The lighting in the hall was terrible and it was shot at f2.8 at 1/50 at 800ISO, I wanted to get a sense of movement in the feet though so didn’t boost the ISO any further. I did a few shots that day which are also on here.
Thanks again John, you have really made my day.

Thanks so much for such a wonderful comment and favouriting too – I really appreciate it.

Thanks so much Doreen, lovely of you to say so.

Thanks so much, that is a fantastic comment and I am deeply appreciative.

Thank you Joanne, it is really nice to get such fantastic feedback. The best tip I can give you is to go to the dress rehersal rather than the main concert day for the photos.

Thank you very much, I really appreciate the favouriting too.

Thanks again Samantha, you have made my day, I am heading over to look at your work now.

Ahh yes Grass hopper, that is my test to see who actually LOOKS at my images – you have passed!

ha ha ha, yep – the camera is a good peice of gear but it is nice to meet a kindered spirit.

Thanks for that, some people don’t like this image because there is movement in the feet but I kinda like it.

Thanks so much, glad you like it!

Thank you so much – I really appreciate it!

Thank you Judith, I really appreciate your comment and yur adding me to your watchlist. Your work is FAB!

Thank you Sir! I am hoping to get more dance photography soon and I hope you like it.

Thanks so much Clare, I love your work BTW.

Thanks Kris – I will do so right now. Sorry I have been a bit busy lately mate.

Thanks Marcel, I really appreciate your kind words mate!

Thanks Lorena, I quite like the motion in the feet but it divided my local camera club.

Thanks you Laura, for the favouriting, kind words and adding me to your watchlist.

Thanks very much, I really appreciate your kind words.

Cheers mate, I really appreciate that.

Thank Ben, I really appreciate your kind words mate, especially from someone of your calibre.

Thanks so much Trish, I haven’t approached anyone yet, I gave a copy to the dance company I was shooting but thats all.

Thank you for such a lovely comment. Your work is excellent. I am on my way to work and will add some comments when I get home.

Thank you kindly!

Thanks Carlos, I really appreciate the kind words and favouriting too. It’s funny, some people are critical of the motion blur in this image but I think it gives a sense of liveliness to it.

Thank you very much. The movement blur in the legs has been an issue for some people but I quite like it.

Thanks so much for that – I really appreciate it.

Thanks Clare, I really appreciate that.

Ha ha thanks, thats a good one.

Thats a huge compliment! Thank you.

Thanks very much Rock, I really appreciate that mate.

Thanks Trish, I am glad you like the motion, some people don’t like it but I think it makes the image personally.

Thanks again. Funny image this, people either really like the motion blur in the feet or see it as a weakness – personally I like the sense of dynamism that the movement injects. Funny how subjective these things can be!

Thanks Monique, I really appreciate that.

Thank you Kelly, thats such a lovely comment. Thanks for the fav too.

Thanks Greg, I really appreciate it mate.

Thanks very much, I really appreciate your kind words and favouriting.

Thank you Belle, i am really flattered.

Thank you very much :-)

Thank you very much Jaeda, that is such a lovely compliment.

Woo hoo! Mahalo Sharon.

Thanks David, I really appreciate that.

Thank you very much – very kind words :-)

Thanks again Andrew.

Thanks again Carlos, :-)

Woo hoo! I am honoured.
