Always a sucker for a class dance shot this has for me a very 1940's feel about it and I just love it. As one of the baby boomer generation I like yourself came to photography later in my life and still learning
King Douglas  Thanks, Richard. You didn't start shooting so late in life and I've been shooting since I was a kid...just not seriously until I was in my early 20's. However, good for you to be nurturing a passion for photography at 65.

Cheers,

King
Richard Bland  Thank you

Oh ,Mr King too got the magic world of fake backgrounds!! :-(
King Douglas  Dearest Barbara (a.k.a. The Goddess), I can do fake backgrounds. I can do real backgrounds. I can even do fake backgrounds without Photoshop. However, I'm sorry this made you unhappy.
Barbara Taurua  So,you are the Lord of Backgrounds.....very unhappy....I was looking at you here like the survivor by the Fall of the Adobe meteorite on the earth!!
King Douglas  I will try to do better.
Barbara Taurua  Yes you can try to bring the dancer outdoors and shoot sky and model at the same time!! not difficult :-))))
Ciao King...take care

Must say that I like this one much more than your other publish today - not necessarily because of the background but because the lighting is fantastic - let me guess - a three light setup? Also find the pose here to be very elegant - glad to see you back on the fp King!
King Douglas  Thanks a lot, Kevin. Can't light everything exactly the same, can we? Looks like three lights to me. Dancers would probably have greater appreciation the pose in the other image

Excellent pose and good tones and light
King Douglas  Thanks, Richard. I see you left a message on my other dance photo published this week, but I can't leave a response there at this time. You seem to know a bit about dance...true?

Even stronger with this background...bravo again:-)
King Douglas  Thanks so much, Ben. I have no idea how you create your fantastic images, but your work gave me hope that folks wouldn't think that this image was too fanciful with the added background. In fact, it is very plain looking to me.
Ben Goossens  I'm a PS addicted, I think it's not disease but a tool to add a + point to a good image. With the sky, it looks like she is floating: added value IMO.
Best, Ben
King Douglas  Oh, I know you use PS...but I still don't know how you do it! :>)

Superb work! A perfect pose, perfectly captured. Is that on stage or is the background added in post?
King Douglas  Thanks, Magnus. I painted the clouds on seamless paper for another shot and thought they might look good behind this beautiful lady...so pp.

I love the light in this image. It is clear but subtle and tender. It reminds me ( please, I do know why) to a Sunday morning in harvest. The additional clouds carry that mood. Wonderful done King
Christoph
King Douglas  This is a reworking of a rejected image, so I'm pleased that you see all those wonderful things. Thanks so much, Christoph.
