Dancers from 'Be Captivated' by Ballet Central at the New Town Theatre, during last year's Edinburgh Fringe.
This show was a very enjoyable show, both to watch...and to photograph.
You can see other pics from this show, here:
My thanks are due to Sara Matthews from Ballet Central and Vicky Pitchers from the New Town Theatre Press Office.

She was doing cartwheels across the stage towards me. I was standing right up to the stage, that is why it seems to be taken from above.

I really wish I could capture her dancing gracefully in the long house in the remote area of Sarawak, I think that would be interesting, I took this shot in the heart of Kuala Lumpur during 17th Conference of Commonwealth Education Ministers in the convention centre. Education Ministers from Commonwealth country gather here for a conference and they were entertain with this traditional dancing performance that originate from Sarawak East Malaysia on their way to the plenary hall.

well, it's not quite the same as being there, but it's a minute and a half of peace and quiet...
well, maybe not actual quiet.
I highly recommend lightbox view.
- just noticed some little fish splishing around in the right hand side of the pool :)
I have found the secret to getting her to pose, and the secret is Shoes!

What is it about this day that you love? What is it about this moment that you treasure?
There is something within your life that compels you to know and experience even more of life. What is it, at the heart of things, that drives you so?
What makes it so wonderful to float peacefully on a calm waters under the warm sun? Why does the beauty of a distant mountain peak touch your heart so profoundly?
There is a reason why you have opinions about a wide range of matters large, small and in between. There is a guiding purpose at the heart of each sincere choice you make.
As you dance with life each day, your steps follow a rhythm that stays true to the genuine person inside, no matter what else may or may not happen. Though you interact intimately with all that is around you, something within you is apart from it all, relishing the experience.
Breathe deeply the sweet, fresh air of being. And keep dancing, as each unfolding moment brings a brand new verse of the song you've always known.

A ballerina/ballet dancer performing on stage at the PNE in Vancouver, BC. She was part of a dance group that had a big show on the stage. She moved with perfect form and skill. The audience gave her a thunderous applause.
We visited Dancing Ledge late morning in quite bright sunshine. It was also quite breezy, so the conditions for photography were not ideal. A number of images were spoiled by spray on the filter, vibration of the tripod or glare/ flare from the sun. This picture is cropped from a larger image that I took with the Big Stopper. The milkiness and light glinting off the rocks was quite attractive. The location itself is a good opportunity to capture wave crashing over a rock ledge but next time I will go for a dawn shoot

The beautiful dancer on the left is Raima, who was in the show Hemingway's Havana which was part of The World Festival, during this year's Edinburgh Fringe.
Raima also modelled for some studio portraits for me..and indeed...you can see such a shot of her in the previously posted shot in my photostream:
The dancer on the right is Eric Turro, who is something of a salsa legend...and justifiably so.
This shot was taken on the night of the final performance of this show...which was also the night of my studio session with Raima.
The Fringe is oodles of fun...but very frantic. :-)

"finora tu hai perso molte cose.
molte cose preziose.
il problema non è sapere di chi è la colpa.
il problema è che tu attaccavi sempre qualcosa di te a tutte le persone che perdevi.
non avresti dovuto.
avresti dovuto tenere qualcosa da parte per te, invece di lasciarla andare via con il resto.
così ti sei consumato a poco a poco.
perchè? perchè l'hai fatto?"
"non lo so"
"forse era più forte di te. o forse eri spinto da... una specie di destino, non mi viene la parola..."
"tendenza?" provai a suggerire.
