i remember th editor of dance Australia mag telling me she wasnt so keen on the movement blurred shots because for editorial purposes you cant identify the dancers, even though the blurry effect enstills a sense of mood and feeling
but i was sort of forced to shoot low shutter since the light was so low
so pleasant surprise...

thankyou people

"...dance Australia mag telling me she wasnt so keen on the movement blurred shots because for editorial purposes you cant identify the dancers," I would agree with that assertion, if you were given a specific brief.
However, as an artistic shot is brilliant. I like the composition, the slow motion dream-like effect and that red colour that keeps calling my eyes. There is so much to see... Congratulations!

Well done Wendell, great series of shots you showed us and this one in particular is great. I haven't a chance to visit much lately but fortunately Matt picked this one so I got to see the various sets you posted.

cheers,

André
