Stardust Dreams
That’s Anastasia flying in the North Window at Arches National Park. Wandering around at Delicate Arch in Arches NP I saw two people posing in front of the arch in ways that regular people just cannot do, like bending over backwards, or standing on your hands bending backwards. 😳 We eventually got to talking and I mentioned I take photos at night and they offered to participate. It turns out that they are incredible athletes specializing in Acrobatics. Check out Daniel at @acro_climber or @acro_shoots and Anastasia @baikalstorm on Instagram. These amazing acrobats posed that night in North Window in a number of poses that would be difficult in the daytime, but even harder at night. They were posing on the edge of a rock face, on hard uneven ground, in the dark, and holding each other up. Remember, the photo is lightened, it is nearly completely dark out there! So a big thank you to Daniel and Anastasia!
In this photo Danial is holding Anastasia up in the air with his feet. The person on top is called the “flier”, so I erased Daniel and moved her up a bit to make her really “fly”. Sorry Daniel! There is one photo for the sky, and then another photo of the acrobats taken at the same focal length and ISO, but with a flash on the acrobats. The 2 photos were combined. Sigma 14-24 mm lens, 24 mm, f 2.8, 20 sec. (sky), 2 sec. (people), ISO 12,800. Hope you enjoy! Wayne
Thanks for all the kind support over the last year, it is much appreciated! A big thank you to the wonderful Flickr family!
