"Arizona Ballet Theatre Salutes The Americas 2014"

Jacob, having wrestled with an Angel of The Lord all night, asks the Angel to bless him. The Angel blesses him and says henceforth his name shall be Israel (Yisra-El in Hebrew) He who contends with The Lord.

I shot Jacob And The Angel in the theatre at yesterday's dress rehearsal of "Arizona Ballet Theatre Salutes The Americas 2014." The lighting is dramatically low, so I had to shoot at slower shutter speeds than I like to use.
Performances are Saturday Evening at 6 pm and Sunday Matinee at 3 pm, in the University Of Arizona's Stevie Eller Dance Theatre.

Miss Cecily, Arizona Ballet Theatre's Artistic Director, said this was the best rehearsal photo I had ever taken. Nice to hear...;))
___________
On September, 2017, Bo Binton accepted a position with a ballet company in Boston, Massachusetts.
The ballet mistress said it was clear he had excellent training. That made Miss Cecily very happy. Bo studied with Miss Cecily and Norman Walker at her ballet studio, American Ballet Theatre, in Tucson, Arizona. He has been featured in a number of Arizona Ballet Theatre performances over a number of years.

I had hoped to capture something good during this dance. The wings were a light image projected on the rear wall by the theater's projectionist.
I was seated second-row center in the Stevie Eller Dance Theatre.
I shot lots of images and in this one, everything aligned perfectly. I have done a bit of image post-processing to enhance the dramatic effect.
