Well, of course, the light and treatment are both beautiful, but the doubly special part is the ballerina, in the perfect pose and so unexpected in this environment. Great work, Deborah. #1581717

Really beautiful shot, Deborah! I like the resemblance of the dancer colors to the American flag in the background. Most of the shirts the men in the background are wearing are mainly blue, white, with the red sign. Great shot! #11116532
