Peter, rock & roll 60s hippie type but have some refinement; my beautiful french much better half may has influenced me slightly
We enjoy the ballet, modern dance and classical concerts as well as a good Rush concert. Some years back; 10/15+ if I remember correctly, we got to see Baryshnikov\'s ballet troupe preform at our local OC Performing Arts Center.
He did this amazing solo sequence of jumps across the stage in an arch; front left, back front right, the entire length of the stage. I\'ve never seen such physical control. His precision was stunning and he did this mid air turn that seemed to be slow motion, landing on toe and flat foot like a feather. Once is full flight, then a perfectly stuck landing like you see done in Olympic gymnastics.
That mid air turn, spin, was my inspiration of the above shot. I set a 1 second shutter speed, stopped down to f8, extended my arms and moved the camera from left, back to chest, extending out to my right in a halfish flat arch...got lucky me thinks
