Great light, used well, and full of the moment, as tender as the dance itself.

Action, access and moment combined with the expressive body language frame the entry point of the dancer on the floor, making a very effective fun composition.

Nice back light on the couple without the back light getting in the way. Nice to have it wide to see the party watching them dance.

I liked the older generation dancing with the younger generation and both of them on the floor.

Beautiful clean situation, very elegant light. Love the use of the overhead drapes.

Simply a very nice frame. The strobe freezing the subject and blur of the ambient action create a dynamic and energetic mix.

Though not the most technically proficient image in the contest, the unique expressive moment captured far outweighs any shortcomings.

Nice clean shot of the couple dancing. Shot from above - often can't get that shot and it's done nicely here.

It's nice to see this warm embrace between the couple in a crowded situation. Her arm draws you into the intimacy of their faces touching and her hand on his neck.

Arabesque finesse combine with the beautifully expressive subjects freezing a lovely moment to create a delightful composition.

Nice of the two women dancing. Great faces on the pair.

Wonderful symmetrical (or almost symmetrical) use of the backdrop to emphasize the couple in front.

Very sweet moment, nicely lit, spot on to the feeling of isolation. Just the two of them in their own little world.

The insinuation of raw emotion, the use of direct flash combine to create the look of a 1940's Weegee photographs.

Nice overall that shows everyone participating. Very colorful.

I really like the glass in the foreground, the guy and the line of musicians in the background. The light on the guy is also good.
