Description

Barbara Shady is a former ballet dancer who does contemporary dance now and teaches different dance genres when she is not modeling. Fortunately she is modeling, too. Since I saw her works for the first time I wanted to photograph with her and now I had the chance on a workshop. It was organized by Spektrum Fotó Kft and led by Sándor Benkő, a visual artist and photographer who gives lectures in several universities both in Germany and in Hungary. He did the lights, Barbara did the poses and it was an interesting flow as I asked for one and she followed it with another, and so on. She's good.

She also performed a short dance choreography and as it differed for all of us, shooting during this workshop, I tried to steal some time and shoot images by using the flash head's modelling lights. This pose was a surprise as she almost unexpectedly started to improvise. Even the photographer who had the flash release at that moment missed this one—But she was aware of the potential of the pose and did it again. Almost effortlessly!
Oh, and referring to the title: we call this bending full back as "bridge", so indeed, this is a Simon & Garfunkel reference.
This image is faithful depiction of a living person and performing artist. Therefore this image is copyrighted and also protected by Barbara's privacy rights. Part of this image copyrights belong to Sándor Benkő, too. I am not allowed to sublicense, sell, lease etc. this image.
