Leora, Center Stage, originally uploaded by foolscircle.
One of my first photo assignments after I got my D100 was to photograph a party being thrown by the Multicultural Club on Whitman’s campus. While I was there, I decided to try an experiment with my friend Leora: I had her stand near the rotating dance light and not move for about two seconds while I snapped off a couple of low-speed shots.
I don’t know why, but I’ve always been particularly fond of this result.

I like how she is in focus and everything in the back is out of focus. I love that affect, and I like the backwards version too….where something small in the background is in focus and everything in the front is out of focus…a la Lion King in the opening scenes.
