Applaud for experimenting. Tough to do these kind of shots. You just have to keep on shooting as the results are most the time unexpected. Vary your flash power (if you did use one)to get a little more facial definition
Has an ethereal grace to it. I think a bit of brightening of the white balance - make the back wall and her skirt just a tad less gray - will add just a bit of a spark. The composition is great and I love the motion - her body moving is ALMOST bending the lines, giving life to the inanimate around her.
Very pleasing image. I do enjoy a good blurry shot. I wish it was a bit brighter, that the whites were a notch or two lighter. But overall I think this is a great capture. The border is a bit heavy for the image, but that didnt factor into my vote. 8
