An emotive image of a dancer. The simplicity of this image places all the more emphasis on the technical aspects i.e.. the lighting. The directional nature of the light works well and emphasises
the drama in the scene. Watch where the shadows fall i.e. the long block shadow under her nose provides an unnatural and uneasy look to the capture. The highlights on her face are a little
bright which washes out her skin tone colour. You could try turning this image into black and white. The absence of colour tends to be more forgiving on bright highlights particularly bright skin tones.
Including the floor reflection strengthens the composition however the extreme right placement in the frame leaves a lot of empty real estate which detracts from an otherwise solid composition.
