Well timed shot Geof to catch the dancer with both feet off the ground. The red robes stand out well against the background.

Hi Geoff,

You captured the moment very well! The dancer jumping adds a lot of motion to the image.

And, you too bass player? Great!! (In my case, somehow the guitar gained some terrain... but still keep my old bass and from time to time play it).

Best regards,
Carlos

Congratulations on your 1000th criteque point. Just amazing how high those people can jump. Must be quite amazing to see this type of performance.
Well done
