Was finally able to shoot the Sufi Dancers in Cairo again. Bad circumstances with changing lights, but I was rather pleased with this one, shot with ISO1600.
Will certainly upgrade to the 5DmkII shortly for low light shooting!
I really love the contrast of the motion with the clear expression in the middle. I think that would have been a difficult moment to capture. Very well done!!
Love pictures like these !
Combination of, more or less, freezed faces along with arms, clothes, legs ... in motion !
Emphasizes action !
Well done Henk !
I have to Google for "Sufi dancers" tough because I have no idea if these are dancers with typical robes/clothing or ....

I quite like it! In fact, I'd like to see some motion in his face; it seems almost too still amongst all the other whirling elements.
FWIW, I don't find it noisy. Why do you think you need a 5DmkII?
Thank you, Scott. The dancers seem to move their face faster than their body and then focus on the same spot somewhere, which is when I pressed the shutter. Have a few with more motion and will check them out.
