the other week I went to an international breakdancing contest that took place here in Holland and snapped these pictures, it was nice because I got to be very close to the dancers:
#1,3 Shots of a cool subject. I'm curious about your shutter speed/aperture values. The background is a bit distracting. Perhaps a lower angle might have helped to isolate the dancers, as well as provided a unique perspective?
#2 The dancer is nearly lost in the background.
#4 What are you shooting?
I hope you are into breakdancing and shoot lots of photos. I'd love to see more in the future.
Amazing to me what these guys can do. I agree with the other poster that next time maybe try to blur the background some to isolate your dancer. Have to really pick him out on these photos. Let's see some more.

thanks, I find breakdancing very intresting and the contest happened to be in the same town where I am currently so I just went, about the speed, it was rather fast.. i can't remember exactly but I think it wa sosmehting like 1/3000, and the apperture was of f/20 or so, it was midday and a very sunny one for that.... for the last picture, there were two teams of dancers and I just wanted to denote comfrontation

hello, I know the DOF is rather wide but I had to use a closed apperture due to the huge ammounts of light... but i get what you mean
The contrast is very high, and the saturation is high as well. Were you shooting at 100 ISO?
I always like to shoot at the lowest ISO posible, in this case 200, and regarding the colour and contrast I was using an ultra vivid setting, which now I regret because I like softer colours (I am still getting used to my first DSRL, a nikon D40)
the fastest it goes is 1/4000, is not so bad if you consider that the fastest the canon eos MkIII has a maximun speed of 1/8000, which doubles it but then pricewise..... well it more than doubles it.

No, not bad at all. I picked up a D40 while ago. Seemd a nice, compact camera to have around.
