There is a kind of magical stillness in those silent, sacred moments before and after a performance. A calm, gentle embrace tethering your feet to the earth so your soul may fly free. Takasaki Art Theatre Grand Theatre, Takasaki City, Japan
Another Brief and Eternal Moment
An autumnal afternoon in Kyoto, Japan
"The moon was within a night of waning to darkness. Finyanna shifted her weight upon the tree branch and continued to gaze through the leaves at the stars. She decided against another night on the ground by the warmth of a fire in exchange for the cradling contours of a giant maple. Perfectly balanced, she lay on her back as the hem of her gown, her hair and the tips of her wings swayed with the creamy fog as it lifted from the forest floor."
Tiffany Carmel Lake, Stelletwal Sacrifice
