Crowded Intimacy - Ballet Austin

My favorite backstage candid photograph taken during Ballet Austin's performances of "The Nutcracker" in Dec. 2006 (and the last from the series to upload). There is just something about this moment... everyone looking onstage... but the two sitting on the floor and stretching seeming completely isolated... almost intimate. Honestly I barely remember taking this photo... instincts are an interesting thing, getting film back always has one or two nice surprises when I shoot candidly.

(end of short ballet series)
