Who is calling this dance.

The difference between theists and atheists is that the atheists don't set the theists on fire for refusing to agree with them.

Re: Having Fun (none / 0)

I froze the action - this was actually the practice bit so people could learn the moves. But it involves lots of skipping around, dancing, weaving in and out of each other, spinning... English country dancing I think. Which I was terrible at when I was at school.

Re: Having Fun (none / 0)

I imagine it would be a lot easier, if someone was calling the dance, as in a square dance, so participants would know the moves. That`s why I framed my first question, in that way.
It sure looks complicated in it`s choreography.
Can you imagine an orchestra without a conductor.

Re: Having Fun (none / 0)

The bloke with the round drum thing was calling the dance and choreographed the practice session. They are repetitive sequences so everyone got into full swing after a minute or so. Beats having a shit DJ and music so loud that nobody can have a conversation.

Blowing bubbles always makes for great photos.

Re: Having Fun (none / 0)

This is technically crap, but the triangle of the guy at the table, the girl and the bubbles makes it somehow work. At first I was going to crop the grey beams out, until I saw the other bubbles high up.

Technically, room for improvement, but you can see she is having fun. Bubbles at weddings are the best.

One should never interrupt a knife twirler.
What were you thinking.
Great concentration.

Re: Having Fun (4.00 / 2)

She was spinning her sticks,limbering her fingers, warming up for the drum performance.

Gotta' document the future rock star's early life.

Even though she's my niece, she got it from me... ;-)

BTW: Love your tag line, I've (mis)quoted it more than once.

Re: Having Fun (none / 1)

gioele,
What an idiot I feel like.
Of course she`s warming up for her drum solo.

Nephew and niece. She was actually having a lot of fun, in spite looking like she was casting for the Exorcist.

Re: Photo of estHer (none / 1)

For some reason this made me think of Wyeth's "Christina's World" in a kind of inverse way.
