A Dance Fly on Prairie Dock. At least I think that's what it is. The bug, not the flower. There sure are a lot of different flies!! Feel free to correct me on either of the fly posts I put up today.
These are beneficial flies to have around. They not only eat nectar but also mosquitoes!!
They also have some strange mating rituals. In mating swarms, males fly up and down in a sort of dance. They have captured an insect, wrapped it in silk, and hold as an offering for females. Females seem to choose the male with the most enticing offering. Sometimes a male may offer just an empty ball of silk!
The Dancer here is demonstrating a very typical Eye expression that we see in all the dances here. Legong Dance, Ubud, Bali.
"Odissi is traditionally a dance-drama genre of performance art, where the artist(s) and musicians play out a mythical story, a spiritual message or devotional poem from the Hindu texts, using symbolic costumes, body movement, abhinaya (expressions) and mudras (gestures and sign language) set out in ancient Sanskrit literature. Odissi is learnt and performed as a composite of basic dance motif called the Bhangas (symmetric body bends, stance). It involves lower (footwork), mid (torso) and upper (hand and head) as three sources of perfecting expression and audience engagement with geometric symmetry and rhythmic musical resonance.["

Lets Dance
David Bowie
Let's dance
Put on your red shoes and dance the blues
Let's dance
To the song they're playin' on the radio
Let's sway
While color lights up your face
Let's sway
Sway through the crowd to an empty space
Another image from our Ballerina shoot Sunday morning at La Perouse.
Hope you like Let’s Dance
Cheers, Mike
Far from being immobile or stuck, if you take the time to observe them well you will see that in reality these birches dance, slowly, to the rhythm of the seasons, then the years, which pass.
Loins d'être immobiles ou figés, si vous prenez le temps de bien les observer vous verrez qu'en réalité ces bouleaux dansent, lentement, au rythme des saisons, puis des années, qui passent.
Awa Odori, also known as ‘the dance of fools’, comes from Tokushima Prefecture on the island of Shikoku. “Awa” is the name of the feudal province which later became Tokushima and 'Odori' mean dance.
According to tradition, Awa Odori originated in the 16th century after drunken revellers took to dancing in the streets of Tokushima in celebration of the completion of Tokushima Castle.
While there is no firm evidence to support this, the exuberant, often frenzied nature of the dance is in keeping with the story’s theme of drunken revelry. Traditional lyrics to the music used for Awa Odori translate to “The dancers are fools and the watchers are fools; if both are fools, you may as well dance”.
Although its home is obviously Tokushima (its Awa Odori is one of the biggest street dance festivals in the world, attracting around 1.5m spectators annually), other major Awa Odori include those held in Koenji in Tokyo (which now almost rivals that in Tokushima for size) and in Minami-Koshigya in Saitama prefecture, photographed here.
Although much smaller than its cousins in Tokushima and Koenji, it still attracts around 800,000 spectators...
