Dancing Girl

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 24 August 2008 in People & Portrait.

A burlesque girl at the Edinburgh Festival; I'm not sure what she was advertising, as her and her companion were never doing anything when I walked past. Still nice to shoot though!

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain

Well done this candid shot, sharp, clear and expressive. I like the contrast between the people in the background and the fresh aspect of this goodlooking woman.

danthro from Suburbia, United States

neat shot. she looks so pale. her costume and appearance makes one think of her as a character in a dramatic play or something but then the background pulls you out into a very different reality
