balancing act

Went to the circus today, for the first time in 37 years.

The artists, who received a gold award at the circus festival in Monte Carlo, are Kong Haitao and Fang Lili from the Jinan Acrobatic Troupe of China. There are four more chairs sitting on a rotating table below what is seen here!

In-camera adjustments for contrast, sharpness and saturation were all set to max (+2), white-balance was set to auto (AWB) and exposure compensation was set to -2/3 EV.

Thanks Sharon! To answer your question: Nah, not really - just being litteral...

So, Olaf, is this your subtle way of saying this challenge is a balancing act?! It looks like you got your in-camera settings just right for this shot - it's beautiful! ~Sharon
