Daily Photos 5th year

At the Daily Gallery one picture, preferably taken that day; is shared with others. While that is difficult to follow (shooting everyday) I have been putting up a picture everyday and this is my FIFTH year. It's been an enjoyable three years viewing pictures of other members and learning new techniques and customs from different places. I think this is the best way to travel to places while sitting at home, and also making friends on the way! It has been a pleasure sharing my pictures and I thank all of you for taking the time to comment on my pictures. Earlier galleries

Republic Day Parade

5th year Pic 156 - 15-Apr-2014. Lavani dance - Republic day parade, Mumbai

Lavani is a combination of traditional song and dance performed to the beats of Dholki, a percussion instrument. Lavani is noted for its powerful rhythm and has contributed substantially to the development of Marathi folk theatre. The songs are sung in a quick tempo and mainly performed by ladies wearing nine-yard long saris, there are also men that dance in support with the lead dancer.

ADDED:

Rick, I've kept the bottom part as it contains the shadows of the two dancers which I feel adds a nice element.

Terry, I tried complete B&W but looked drab with more emphasis on the shadows, taking away the attention from colourful costumes. More Lavani info

Critiques welcome!

It was interesting to note the varied observations on the composition and an honour to see my pic at #4 place! Thank you all!

    Superb light and composition. Those flowers in the background compliment the color of the costumes nicely.

    Excellent job, the way the dancers are spaced relative to each other. Their shadows add a lot to the composition. Love their colorful costumes and seeming exuberance in performing. Having a little more at the top of the shot might have given it a bit better balance.
