    LOVE this one! Artistic and surreal...
    If you have the room, I'd like to see a crop that reduces the negative space
    on the left, and so, de-centers the dancer a bit - also, a bit more room above the hands would look more balanced I think.

    Concerning taste, there is no dispute. I am a fan of negative space.


    Here is my sobrina again

    ^^^ Thanks for the edit willard3.

    I think the revision is an improvement, especially the additional space above the dancer.
    I hear you and generally agree about negative space... and I think your first version has a certain quality accordingly.
    If mine, the final version would probably be in a sweet spot right between the two.

    It's a fine shot. I think the edit improves it but I would like to see more black at the top and less stage at the bottom. So many possibilities...mwink.gif.

    Glad you liked this.

    I am also pleased that the only real color is her hair.
