An afternoon of colors, sun, dance and good music 5:02 PM

Oyu Oro Afro-Cuban Dance Ensemble performs at Heritage Sunday for Lincoln Center Out of Doors

So yes, I gave Oyu Oro a second chance today. All dance companies have their good and bad performances. The performance today was GREAT, GREAT and GREAT! It was fun, colorful and representative of what a good show should be like. The costumes were great, the musicians weren't ear-shattering loud and the dancers were in unison.

It shouted summer and all of us in the audience wanted to keep soaking it in. Two thumbs up dancers, musicians, choreographer and organizers of the event. Better yet, two thumbs up audience members for supporting this style.

A splash of color 12:56 PM

Color is soo important in my life. I grew up surrounded by saturated, rich ones. When I am down, all I need is wonderful hues to cure my blues.

Lately I've been gravitating towards blues, greens and purples. I've also been down lately, not in the zone and thought it would be great to share some of my colors with you. The images below are from the Fuerza Bruta show which I've previously blogged about. A sensory overload for sure!

Bring some color into your life, you'll be amaze at how it can help with the winter cold and feeling down.

Starting from the beginning 5:01 PM

It's interesting for me to think that this blog started almost a year ago for Sebastian Kaupert's Business, Design, Results class. When it all began, it served the purpose for everyone in the class to see what the rest of us were up to and to post up the answers to the thought provoking questions and he research he would have us do. I still have all of those sheets and continue to ponder on those same questions. The answers have changed as time has passed by and I've gained more experience and skills.

One of the main purposes is for all of us to post the photograph of the week. One related to the previous one. Since I am no longer in class and often time I get questions about my photography, I will now start posting one or two shots from different shoots I've done/currently doing. I'm hoping that this will help me get back into shooting more often because honestly, I miss photography like WOAH!. It was my second passion... dancing being first. That's my next goal, to start taking classes again-- after all I'm right around the corner from the studio.
