 This strange juggler was difficult to photograph because he turned himself on a big wheel... so I did many shots and at last I choose this one... I hope you like it...

I gave this a 10. The expression is priceless. Should have placed much higher.

Nice stop motion. I didn't know the "Blue Man" group had split up :-)

I think that an even faster shutter-speed might have benefitted this shot (i.e., by freezing the ball completely), but it is good, as it is.

He doesn't look all that happy about being a blue juggler wearing that hat! :) I like this one.

curious looking juggeler, still see blur on the motion I would like it better if there was no blur on the moving balls at all

I think I'd have the same expression if that were my job. :-) Nice capture, great colors.

Great DOF. Love the vivid blue. I don't even mind him being centered, as there is so much going on in the shot (yet it isn't too busy). Great image! 8
