These photographs are very similar because they are placed in the dance studio. Diane Smook is trying to inform the viewers about this particular dance studio and their rehearsals. I like the different angles that are used because it gives a view from the dancers and the reflection, the reflection of the dancers, and simply the dancers.

Karin Stevens These pictures are very similar, too. This is because the same movement is presented in each by using a similar angle to make the eye wander from the right of the pictures to the left. http://alabastro.photoshelter.com/gallery/Karin-Stevens-Dance-Rehearsal/G0000Osb1xHzhVOU

Richard Calmes Richard Calmes decided to focus on the lines that ballet creates. He shoots so that there are a line of dancers each who is is making the same dance move. I like how he informed us close up for the three out of the four pictures because it shows that he is trying to get to know his subject more. http://www.pbase.com/rcalmes/class
