Re: In the circus

Second thing I noticed was his belt buckle undone; did his trousers fall down?

As for the photo, I love it the lighting, colours, the composition - nothing for me to complain about, except a very minor thing (just picking on things for the sake of it) which is the pole between the artist and the glasses.

Re: In the circus

Very interesting image with lots to look at! A good catch for the low light. I also like the hazy impression of the audience beyond.

Re: In the circus

Very nice capture. A bit soft, but still ok. Lighting and artists pose was working together well and the soft hint of the audience in the background add alot to the shot. Good work

Bluesrider:

Very nice shot you have here. Captured at the perfect moment. The colors are great, the image tones range from pure white on the jugglers forehead to deep black but the colors on his vest still pop out. The DOF is perfect for the composition and really enhance the audience presence. Great job! Congratulations on the sticky. Well done.

Re: In the circus

Wonderfully captured light. The hint of the child's amusement in the background elevates the image.
