We visited a local restaurant near Mar Menor in Spain, which included a flamenco show after the dinner. I was quite excited, and brought my camera with two memory cards and a portable hard disk as I knew I'd be gunning.

Again, such dynamic scene is not my specialty, but the reward was this shot of a traditional Spanish dance, still very popular - and for a good reason as flamenco is a feast for the senses.

This shot has it all: movement, pose, poise, color, sharpness, good bokeh in the background, and a beautiful lady in the foreground. It also has one of the strongest compositions in my portfolio.

Perhaps I should get out of my photographic comfort zone more often!
