The mystery of the body in motion. The surprise of seeing what seems impossible. The art of a moment --- a moment of joy, love, silence, grief, effort, life --- captured. In one thrilling photograph after another, DANCERS AMONG US presents professional dancers from across the country --- leaping, spinning, lifting, kicking, while in the midst of daily living. There’s no photo manipulation here, no trampolines, no gimmicks, no tricks. Just a photographer, his vision, and the serendipity of what happens when the shutter clicks.
