Hi Christian!
Well i hesitated a lot... i decided however to give you 2 points (it doesn't really matter either) it was about differentiating between my other critiques.

I decided that it was the camera that betrayed you... if shutter aperture could have been wider, the shutter speed would have been bigger and your pisture sharp!

At first sight, it seems that they are on a boat with a sail.. but in fact no ;-)

Cheers

What i liked, the framing (on moving targets) and the face expressions of both characters.

Hi Christian,
I like the color and graphism in this superb dual portrait. Good sharpness and contrast.

Hey Christian,
A very nice shot offering us a glimpse into Hawaiian culture. The fact that the shot is not 100% sharp actually adds a sense of motion and flow to the composition and I think that's what dances are basically all about. Well done!!! TFS
Greetings,

The slighty long exposure effect add the dance feeling to the image, colors are also very nice, compliments Christian!!!

Fabio.

Hello Christian,

Beautiful colors and "subjects" for this image, but the lack of sharp of the man is intriguing, attention is all for the girl, compliments Christian.
Ciao

Hi Chris,

Hola Christian,

Es una lastima que el hombre no esta bien enfocado, sin embargo si es una foto muy atractiva. Los colores tenues le dan mas ambiente a la imagen. Se ve que es una celebracion con mucho colorido y entusiasmo. Gracias por compartir y ten un buen fin de semana...Ya estoy de regreso asi que estare mas visible por aqui.

Christian,
the atmosphere is a wonderful, but the low shutter did inflict some blur due to movement of the dancers and that is a real pity. I would love to see this here crystal clear sharp! Another detail is the WB. It seems to me that you got this shot in a show with light bulb ilummination, right? The shot has a slight yellow hue and that is a sign of inbalanced WB.
