Aerial Dancer

I never would have imagined it, but I enjoy photographing dancers as much as surfers, baseball or soccer players (I came to this realization a few years ago when I got the chance to shoot dome flamenco dancers in Seville).  There's a troup of aerial dancers who perform around western New York, and I was able to catch part of their performance at a festival in Brant, NY this past summer (unfortunately I only saw the one performer).  Anyway, here are some of the pictures I took that day.

Erie Basin Marina


These were taken one evening a few weeks ago near where Lake Erie flows into the Niagara River (with the water eventually tumbling over Niagara Falls about fifteen miles downriver).
