This was a difficult photo shoot because of the light. It was windy and more and more clouds rolled in, sometimes covering the sun and eventually covering most of the sky.  This meant constantly stopping to change exposure settings and the light changing on us during a sequence of shots.  This also meant shadows were casting on the dancer.  Studio lighting is easier to control but it’s worth the effort outdoors to capture the dancer with a gorgeous background.

The old train depot in Worcester has been restored, rescuing another architectural gem.  Inside is Middle Eastern restaurant, Byblos, with a spacious dance floor. The lighting is much too dark for my camera so I had to resort to using flash when I wanted to photograph the incomparable Melina dancing with the Ed Melikan Ensemble.
