This glittering dancer was part of a troop of Brazilian dancers performing at an event in 2010 during the Vancouver winter Olympics. Did Brazil actually participate in the winter olympics? Yes they did. There were two downhill skiers, two cross country skiers and a snowboarder. Unfortunately, they won no medals. Now you know.
Aside from cropping and a minor contrast nudge, the photo is posted as is. I let the dancer and club lighting do all the hard work. It's a one second exposure with a slow sync Speedlight flash. Pretty simple and lots of fun when it works out.
At this point though, I'm wondering how much of an effect that the flash had. Either way, it went off and I'm happy with the final result.
