needed a 'motion-blur' for the weekly assignment in Digital Photography School (DPS) - rehearsal of the Tin Can Gypzee, ATS bellydancers was perfect - one problem - which photo to choose! these gypsy skirts are about from 25 to 35yards at the hem, so when they are swirled, a lot of colorful fabrics fly with the rhythms - taken at MariJahne's Monday class - Visitors Center at the Planteen, Plant City, FL Thank you Gypzees! © All rights reserved (unusual angle? As low as I could get on the floor and not have one of those skirts hit the lens!
