I was the one 9 vote you received. I thought it was a very unique interpretation and my eye was pulled to the dancer's motion. Then my eye caught the colorful character on the right and was pulled right back into the shot by the dancer's motion again, paying little attention to the feet in the background or the gutter.
Great shot! I loved it!
Gives great dynamic motion in the piece. Love that one is blurred and shows great motion , the other one is almost still. Great contrast. Beautiful colors in the costume. I find the gutter on the lower left distract, but overall a nice picture.
I like how you have captured a sense of motion here. I think a photo from street level would be better. That way you wouldn't have to crop the heads off the spectators. Or a tighter crop on just the subject. I don't think this will score well because it doesn't show flight.
Unusual shot with an unusual crop/frame. There is just too much going on and too many chopped off areas. I do think you completed the challenge and the color is very nice.
