Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Great stage shot that shows how challenging it can be to get all these little girls to co-operate by smiling and holding the pose for the camera. You have the ones who are smiling and holding the pose but then comes the amused realization that not all are smiling in perfect unison. But then, the expressions and poses here are priceless and makes it all the more interesting. There is one ballerina holding her hands to her ears to ward off a sonic boom that may or may not happen. Then there is the other little girl 4th left that is taking hold and pushing away the other little ballerina's hand who has her arm out in full point mode all the while hamming it up for the camera.

Thank you for your kind words and guesses. ;)
Other then studio lighting I manually focused the slinky so if you look closely I focused on the under part not the outer springs.
Thank you for taking the time to view my image.
I am honnered beyond words for the blue from Scott, my sincere thanks.

I can't help it. Give me some nice tones and gradients and contrast and grit, some light and darkness, lines and lines and more lines (reminds me of a typewriter with the swooping motion of its keys). This is a guilty pleasure photograph for me. Top marks.

would be so much better w/o the hands cropped on the edges - a small detail that means so much here...

A spring compressed on this side and expanded on the far side?
