Paso Doble

I found these two doing the tango in RMNP. Although they weren't moving very fast. And no, I do not watch Dancing with the Stars, much.

Comments and critiques welcome, and thanks for looking,

Cool looking tree. Second one is pretty overshadowed by 'El Grande'.
I like how the two boulders provide an anchor of sorts.

Like John said those 2 fg boulders work really nicely to anchor the trunks in the scene, and the yellow colour of the trunks works well to separate them from the darker background. I like this one Morris, cool looking tree!.

Nice subject. A perspective that shows both trees more to illustrate the separation might be nice. It's hard to tell if this is one or two trees.

Yup. your composition choices, and what you chose to include, are spot on.

I can think of no (Stacy Keibler) good (Kelly Monaco) reason (Julianne Hough) for any red-blooded American male to watch DWTS. None whatsoever.

John, the El Grande thing cracked me up.
Thanks Nick, and Kalin I'll try moving more to the right next time to see if that works better.
Todd, those are 3 of the reasons this old guy is looking into ballroom dancing.

Nice comp and the soft light suits the dancers perfectly!

First reaction: Wow what a great shot! Like the composition from foreground rocks that act like steppingstones into the image to treetop reaching for sky. After a while, the tree limbs seem to move with the gracefulness of a ballroom dancer.

Very cool! The first thing that came to my mind was Tom Lehrer's "The Masochism Tango"

Awesome tree, and an awesome shot to do it justice. Very well seen!!!

A very musical shot, Morris!
