Making a Transition Gracefully


There was an article in today's Seattle Times about the wonderful Angela Sterling, photographer extraordinaire of dancers. I have mentioned her before in this blog, but her talents are worth lauding again. She was a dancer with Pacific Northwest Ballet (PNB) until she injured her back. In transitioning into photography, she wanted to be able to show dancers, their bodies, and dancing in a way that rewards them for all the hard work they put into craft and instrument. She succeeds magnificently! The photo to the right, of Lucien Postlewaite of PNB, is a fine example of her art. To see more of her work, check out both the article referenced above in the Seattle Times and her website.
