Blues Dance Birthday at Lenora’s Room in Portland 8/12/2008

Last Tuesday was the “birthday” of blues dancing in Portland at Lenora’s room.  Lots of people showed and it was a very fun night. I took some pictures in between dancing - or more like danced in between taking photos. As I mentioned in my previous Blues Dance picture post, these are darker to reflect the ambiance of the room.

To see  the full set, go to Part 1 and Part 2.

Blues Dance in Portland’s Lenora’s Room 8/05/2008

I am doing more dance photography lately, especially of Portland’s growing blues dance scene. It helps me explore different styles of photography, try out new techniques, and make new connections. I try not to use any flash for the blues scene as it kills the mood. So some of these are darker than normal, but that is how the ambiance was. Taking pictures of fast moving dancers in extremely low light is very hard, so it is a great challenge and fun:
