I live in the shadows, that place between light and dark. I can live in obscurity without being in total darkness. I can move into the light but retreat when I become too exposed. It is the place that I feel most at home. Always wishing to be in the light, but only safe in the shadows.

Shadow Dancers


I went to see my City's Contemporary Dancers tonight. The show was good, but while everyone else was watching the human dancers, I was watching their shadows dance. It was fantastic, especially when the lighting created all sorts of unique images. I tried to takke picture, but was not allowed to, even without the flash. So I have decided to see if I can get a lighting technician at the local theatre to help me one day to see what we can create. Now I just have to convince the dancers to help, too! Oh, well. At least I got a pic of the floor just as the show started :)
