The costume, the colors, the motion, the energy......you have captured not only a cultural expression, but the sheer joy of dance.

Dance is energy, and by shooting a moving dancer at 1/25th of a second, you express such energy beautifully here, Carol. IN addition, the colors and the dancer's expression add cultural and emotional context. It reminds me of the approach I took to a similar dancer in Brazil a few months ago:http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/131805737
