Dance Field Images

Here are a selection of some of my first experimental images, luckily on this day the sun was shining so with this I was able to create effective shadows and shapes with the dancers. 
Below are many images that I took, individually with difference compositions and shapes created through the dance movement, positions and balances.  

Here with her hands covering her face gives a sense of the unknown and with the angle being a lot lower, like we're beneath her initiates status and hiding.
The only link from these two photos are thoughts of imagery, animalistic and the sense of spinning/movement.

The angle of this image accentuates the position of the dancer, with her legs lining up with the horizon of the grass/sky balances the the photo. With the perfect timing and the positioning of herself in the sky, the composition leads towards her and her comic expression.  


The natural lighting in this image shines on there clothing, this initiates the direction in which it is shining. This helps emphasises the shadows on the left hand side of the image. I feel the image could have been improved with having more shadow showing in the image but trying not to distract from the position they are holding.
Her position she is holding slightly looks like its upside down and shes pushing against the grass. I feel her face expression adds to this. The position she is holding is very obscure and intriguing.

Her shadow of hers is leading inwards towards her and the sun.
Here is the same photo but one is turned upside down; looking at the photos individually in original photo compositionally they are positioned between two trees either side, her arms are the same level, her hair is split coincidentially into two sections and their shadow leads towards them. And when looking at the photo upside down, it seems to change the look of it completely, it doesn't look like the same image. The image seems to play with the eye more and makes you think indepth.

The photo on the left is the leading position into the image on the right, but generally I feel the preparation image is more engaging due to the alien like position. It almost seems they are like one and joined together.

The idea that her legs are cut off links to the idea of leading somewhere.


The main focus in this image are there height of their legs, and the lining of it.

Here is a very similar photo to one in this post, shes pulling the same position but generally the positioning of herself in the photo is that shes more central and in line with the grass. It also seems like the grass horizon is curved slightly and positions around her.
These 3 photos are all the same jumps and positions but only from different angles and each one brings something different.


This ones also different with including the school location in the background and the 3 different dance movements. It feels more informal with the bags and coats left in the image, which adds also to the imbalance of the image with the dancers on the far left.
Each movement is different but linking slightly. With the Fenella and Hayley having similar positions and Lauren leading towards Hayley who is in the background.

With having the sunlight behind them, shadows them and there faces, outlining there bodies and the position held.
