Greetings from the Critique Club
What an interesting image you have presented here. You managed to work around what could have been a difficult problem with depth of field on that forward hand and the face & body of the dancer. By blurring out the background you made it all come together.
As your commentors suggested, the lighting is uneven; perhaps it is possible on your Nikon to change the intensity of the on-board fill flash? If so, that might help some in a similar situation. I would also suggest that you use even more blur on the background since it competes mightily with the dancer and her colorful clothing. But I don't know how much you could do and still be "legal." (Of course now that it is for your personal portfolio, the sky's the limit should you wish to try that idea)
As it is, you achieved a respectable score for this nice image, and undoubtedly you learned from it.
Good luck in future challenges.
Alice

| such energy. I suppose it is the broken circle which she seems to be spiraling into and also breaking apart. 10. |

| Nice, Rikki, nice. I'm guessing this is from some multi-cultural event. And she's a belly-dancer? |

| Has a certain strangth of dynamism and evident movement, though it feels constricted by the square crop requirement - it feels rather that you've forced the image into the format than that the image itself needed to be presented in this way. The flash seems too direct also - takes away much sense of depth from the photo. |
