I've never been one to share what I would consider incomplete work but I'm going to go out on a limb. It's a process. Both educational and creative. Part of the process is sharing.
Showing movement in a photograph has always fascinated me. Whether I was doing a slow shutter drag of a surfer, an empty wave or a cyclist, there is something wonderful about showing that energy in a still image. I am now trying to apply that to the dancers I've been working with.
Lois Greenfield is excellent at this. As are Ken Browar and Deborah Ory of the NYC Dance Project. All of them are great inspirations but I wanted something a little different.
So, I began experimenting with mixing continuous lighting with strobes. Both of these images are close to what I want but I haven't yet been able to pull out what is really in my head. It's almost there.
