Ha- this is great! And the balance is implied - nice sublte touch, everyone should be able to envision a flamingo on one leg or a plastic one on one stick. nice composiiton, nice DOF.

Balanced Imbalance

I like this one - However the center of balance seems shifted to the right, making it feen actually unbalanced. I wonder if that was deliberate or whether it might be more effective croppec closer on the left and wider on the right. you would lose some of the reflection but I'm not sure that is critical to the image, it serves as a leading line that leads out, off the frame. Usually we want leading lines to lead into the image so the viewer will look at it longer.

white balance? Great image - lots of tension but his hands are a funny color.

why the square crop? wouldn;t a narrower crop emphasize the image better?

ok - i agree with you about the sides adding negative space - now what about cropping away the table, leaviing half the beer can and all negative space? maybe it is the bottom, floor or whatever, that is extra - also it has less contrast that the dancer and the can. is less dramatic.
