I did not get to this one during voting, but this is excellent composition & use of B&W. This has an excellent range of contrast. Should have been voted higher IMO:)

nice shot a bit better lighting on the top and it would have been an excellent shot.

This is just lovely! Tone, texture, composition, movement, all wonderful. The thing that really gets me about this photo, (which may well be the cause for the title), is that it looks like the man only has 1 leg. If that is the case, then having him juxtaposed with the movement of the beautiful dancer is quite poignant, especially with the expression on his face.

On the other hand, it could be just the angle of the shot that makes it look, to me, like he has 1 leg.

Terrific photo in any case.

Talk about leading lines!!! that red skarf is the most poignent - it leads from her hand (hand in marriage symbolism?) to her other hand but doesn't quite reach to him- He has a bit of red around his neck , ckoking on her rejection? Her red flowers and red lips complete the picture of his desire and her desirability. Wonderful!

Forgot to mention the whites for purity - he takes off his white hate and bows to her perfect white chastity (tingles with a bit of red desire on both parts)

This like an old photo from the Wild West. You've captured a mood too, hope I'm not the only one that feels this also.

Wow...this is beautiful!! A very emotive capture with lots of detail and movement. I adore Spanish dancing and culture, and this is just a wonderful example of what there is to love! Great capture. :o)
