A Certain Step

2007.09.26

“Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the heart is another.” ~Unknown

“To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love.” ~Jane Austen

Like all art, dancing can be technically perfect yet uninspiring. But when the dancers/artists add their hearts and souls and sweat into the mix, it can be arresting.

Take your breath away.

And make the rest of the world fade from sight.

Just once, I would like to take someone's breath away.

These shots are also from the LA County Fair. I should say that the groups are local but they were dancing international dances.
