Lori-Anne...
Wonderful still life capturing the essence of the beautiful art of Ballet, whose accoutriments reflect the delicacy of its expression.
It is interesting to me that you combine free lance writing with a love of photography. Perhaps a picture book of your works is not too far in your near future!
What struck Tami and I about this shot, is that we both imagined the dancers before us with just the risidual image of their footwear.
Congratulations, on a wonderful image.......
With Warm Regards,
John & Tami E. San Francisco Bay Area

Yes, Cathy, these are real, honest, hard working shoes. It was a wonderful experience to spend time in the studio shooting the dancers, where the art is created. Still, this spontaneous shot was my favourite.

Hi Cleveland, thanks for your critique. You may be right that the shoes are too crowded - this is just how they were hanging, in the dance studio I was visiting, and I felt compelled to sneak a quick shot (I was actually there photographing the dancers). While I may have been able to do something better by arranging them, I liked the authenticity of them, how the dancers left them.

These look like real, honest, hard working shoes. I love the story and the way you have portrayed them. CC

Lori-Anne, I like the idea you are trying to convey, I have mixed emotions, soles are lost on some of the pointe shoes and they might be crowded in too close. Maybe a different angle, not quite sure. Just my opinions and through my eyes.
