Wonderfull image Pete! I'm normally waving the white flag at that time in the morning with a few drinks under my belt. Lol.
I like the sense of movent in the shot, not only the people dancing but the whole atmosphere seems like its moving too.
This would be the type of shot I'd discard if I took it. It admittedly takes me a while a bit longer to appreciate an image.
Well done, like it.

The image is moving, but it is just right for the atmosphere. The dancers are stunning, but the light has a star turn too

I love the motion and the communication between the two young ladies. And the one on the right, what she's doing with her feet would surely have been impossible several hours earlier. Great shot, Pete!

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks all. And, 'young ladies', I'll tell Ina that, she'll be delighted!! She started dancing at about 8:30 and stopped at 4:00. How she does it I'll never know.

That's a great shot Pete ... The light is lovely
Spot on exposure too!
It somehow has a very "real" feel to it ... Can't explain it though

Yes, the light streaming through the doorway makes for a theatrical scene - wonderful Pete
