above flower gesture (between the two "lighst, suns") reminds me of a whirling sufi dancer ~
a physically active meditation which originated among Sufis, and which is still practiced by the Sufi Dervishes of the Mevlevi order. It is a customary dance performed within the Sema, or worship ceremony, through which dervishes (also called semazens) aim to reach the source of all perfection, or kemal. This is sought through abandoning one's nafs, egos or personal desires, by listening to the music, focusing on God, and spinning one's body in repetitive circles, which has been seen as a symbolic imitation of planets in the Solar System orbiting the sun.[1]

dancing jewel/platycypha caligata
Member of the damselfly family.
We all know that in the animal kingdom males normally exhibit more beauty compared to females. But the dancing jewel you see here is a female and of much greater beauty than the dull pinkish male. So this is a clear indication that these jewels may have evolved from humans.
Correction May 4: I was wrong, this is indeed a male!
I was told this in a distant land
Where tortured souls have to fight together in anguish
And the scenes of the show
Are of a cruel and violent nature
Somewhere east of Eden
The designs will never change
Vented through others' fear
The world stops at the end of the hall
East of Eden - Dead can dance
An unrecognizable man and woman, a couple, dance on a wooden deck in a public park. We can see only there feet and full shadows of them. Dance of shadows. Candid photo.
Party time! A late-afternoon communal dance in a small Kara settlement (Korcho) set high on a fertile east bank of southern Ethiopia's lower Omo River. Adorned with finger-painted white-chalk body markings, glass-bead necklaces, and clay hair buns with ostrich feathers.
The essential life-sustaining Omo River is situated (out of sight) below the edge of a steep riverbank in the backdrop. The Nyangatom (past enemies, current allies) are established on other side of the river. The river carves a hard winding course south through the volcanic-rock floor of the Great Rift Valley for another 50-60 kilometres before pouring into Lake Turkana at the border with Kenya.
This photograph pays homage to the extraordinary analog images of the peoples of East Africa that appear in the seminal book Vanishing Africa, published in 1971 by eminent Africanist and social documentary photographer, Mirella Ricciardi.

Krachendes Eis —
Und auf einmal tanzt es
mit dem Licht einer weit entfernten Sonne.
Cracking ice —
And then it dances
With the light from a far away sun.

Young Mizos in traditional costumes dancing in a stadium in Aizawl,the capital of Mizoram.I tried my best to capture the mood but I am not very good at this.:-)However I thought my friends would find the costumes interesting.
Mizoram is a land-locked state of north-east India sharing borders with Myanmar and Bangladesh.The name Mizoram derives from the words Mi (people) Zo (lofty place or hill) and Ram (Land).Hence Mizoram means Land of the Hill people.Most of the state is mountainous and 91% is forested.About 95% of the population is of tribal origin.87% of the population is Christian,having converted from animistic religions to Christianity in the first half of the 20th century.The north of the state is dominated by the Presbyterians and the south by the Baptists.During our visit a local friend took us to attend Sunday morning service in the largest Presbyterian church in Aizawl.Rate of literacy in the state is very high .
The Mizos are very fond of music and dancing.I took some shots but soon I was whirled away by three young girls to join the dancing.It was great fun.:-)
