Hello there,
Greetings from the Critique Club. This is an interesting photo of a sculpture that you̢۪ve got here, one I̢۪ve not seen (I̢۪m from Fort Collins) as well. Photographically, I think things are a bit cluttered. The lines of the building battle for attention a bit with the sculpture here. You̢۪ve got a bit of noise going on here as well from the ISO 800, so I would recommend lowering that in the future unless it̢۪s a necessity for shutter speed. To me, however, the first thing I would change is the way the one of the other dancer̢۪s feet and hand entered the photo on the bottom right. This, combined with the leg of the subject, are in a bit of a fight for attention with the subject. Perhaps you might have photographed this from more of an oblique angle, which would make them work together more instead of against each other. You did a good job of including all the parts of the spectrum from white to black, but I think a bit more contrast and some lightening on the sculpture̢۪s face would̢۪ve helped things out a bit by showing more detail. The uniformity of the sky might̢۪ve detracted from some user̢۪s votes as well, since most people expect a lot of contrast in a duotone entry. It̢۪s interesting how the clouds appear in the glass though- when I first saw this, I thought it was a wire grid of some sort behind the sculpture, only to notice shortly thereafter the warped building reflection.
