Congratulations to mholdef for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 6 votes - View Previous Winners


Had the opportunity to shoot a dance series with Kristi Bentz of the Lyon Opera at the newly renovated Hotel Dieu (an old hospital that has been converted to a hotel, restaurants and shops).

C&C most appreciated.

Mark

Fantastic poses, venue, & DOF.

I am not crazy about the last 2 images, because the poses accentuate (how can I put this PC) her "less-than-typical" ballet figure.

That first one is great. Perfect timing for the composition.

Wonderful images. My favourites are the ones with the arched corridor - great use of depth of field, but all have sublime light, great poses and dynamism.

Less that typical ballet figure - I don’t know what that means.

perhaps the author is referring to the slender, posture-perfect with long lines, and graceful look.

for me, those poses, while do not accentuate the typical dance poses normally seen in a performance, they nevertheless showcase the flexibility of a dancer.. great work!

I believe he was referring to her breasts. Most ballet dancers are very flat chested, but this one is actually a woman.

This is, in fact, what I was referring to. I have no problems with breast augmentation, but in these particular images, it really seems to take away from the classic ballet figure, in my opinion

Now clear !

This said, I do believe that hers are natural - which is quite exceptional for a dancer

It's that leg angle - looks like she broke her leg or something..
