"BALLERINA AT REST"

HAVANA, CUBA

Meet the very talented Laura Kamila, a classical ballerina with the National Ballet of Cuba. Laura was kind enough to do a photo session with our group while we were visiting Havana, Cuba.

Nice pose and neat that they would do a special session for you. I am just now listening to Shostakovich ballet Cindarilla

 

[AlanLichty]

Nice - not the usual pose as we are often trying to capture them while dancing.

I don't know how I would pose a ballerina myself. I think it would be fun to do, and I would just have to go along with the ride. Good job on this one, I like that pose.

Where is this shot at? It looks like marble flooring?

Jim, yes it is marble flooring. This is a three story building in Havana. This image was shot on the second floor. There is an area with three large, tall, arched doorways. This area is used to hang up washed table cloths to dry. There is an upscale restaurant on the third floor, La Guarida. Photographers frequently refer to the second floor as the drying room.
