photo-a-day 16/30


When taking action shots such as these I tend to tilt the camera as to add more movement to the action.  I also have a tendency to do that with still life as well, as stagnant straight on photos bore me.  The subject is Rachel Brice dancing with The Indigo, a bellydance troupe (http://www.theindigo.net/rb/Welcome.html) that graced the Oregon Country Faire a couple of years back.  I took a ton of photos of them as the mid afternoon sun through the trees and colors of both the costumes and the canopy did wonders for an intimate performance.  Nothing entrances me more than movement of the body, especially in dance.
