I’ve seen this beautiful post at Tomer’s blog about a photo shoot of two dancers, one of them a breakdancer. This got me thinking about Amit, and how I can try photographing some action for once with my beloved Lucille.

So we picked up Amit and climbed up to an old fort outside Rosh-Ha’ayin. As the shadows grew long (around 6-ish), we started playing some breakdance music from Amit’s cell phone and began taking some pictures:

I know it’s reletavily a lot of pictures. I simply couldn’t choose between them

I remember when Amit started learning how to break dance. I kept teasing him, saying I can also do this, I can also do that. And I did (sort of)… But he became good. Really good. Now I know I can’t do half the things he can, but still there is that thought: had I taken a different path on earlier in my life, could I have done them? (To be honest – I always feel that way when I see someone doing something better than me.) The answer is “probably so”, but go figure what else what have been different. For now, I’m photographing – and enjoying it.

So thank you Amit – a.k.a. Magnezium – for a great photo shoot.
