Nice image, with a few technical issues.
Biggest point: Would have been nice if the face were brighter & not have a shade of the arm fall over it.
Small: I think I'd prefer a bit warmer flesh tone, and maybe (gasp!) even some noise reduction...
Very nice framing, timing & motion blur.

Isn't she of keel? The stage floor looks to be at an angle...

Personally, I'd prefer more light tones and less noise...

Since the EXIF isn't available, I'm unable to offer suggestions regarding the settings...

What lens is this with? And have you any settings info available?

Good try though... It is a beautiful art...

Actually, that's part of what I like about the image...

Finally see it. Having shot a bit of ballet (another project in the pipeline for months and months ... 2700 frames from 140 dances, sigh) I appreciate how difficult it is and while this is a nicely moody piece it might have been better as a blue duotone. Although her form is very nice the wrinkles in her crotch are unusual and tend to draw the eye ... this area is usually stretched tight as the feminine version of the codpiece I think. Of course the real expert here is Rutt and if he shows up he may have some more useful commentary. So, I like it but think there are issues.

Great capture...I'd like to see more detail in her face.
