I am a fan of Flamenco. Flamenco is the blues of the Spanish Oppressed. Flamenco came from somewhere via some people, but that is a heated debate that has no bearing on me and my world. I was commissioned to shoot a Flamenco recital, and this was one of the photos I took. I love their dresses and hair adornments. I love the feminine aspects and the riotous foot stomping. The passion! Oh! The Passion! The love of life, somehow enhanced by pain and turmoil! it’s the same reason I love the blues! How the scarred soul sings tears and manages to make us sing, dance and love again!!
I am, I am, such a fan. I plan to add more flamenco photos.
Stay tuned.
