For the 4th release of my Behind the Lens column decided to cut back on the words and let the image speak for itself. This image is from the recent Bodies of Text II performance. Pictured in the image above are Alie Vidich (Director of the Movement Brigade) and Heather Cole. To find out more about the Movement Brigade go to their website: http://www.movementbrigade.org/
As always questions/comments/suggestions are very welcome. Let us know what you think of the column thus far or about this week’s image. Your feedback is important to making the column the best it can be. So feel free to share your thoughts with me and others by leaving a comment post. =)

Nice composition, texture, and color. I like the dark background for isolating the figures. The light does its job of directing the focus. Great shot, Bill.
