With intent to capture the elegance and beauty of ballet dancers, Dane Shitagi, a photographer, decided to come up with the Ballerina Project. Shitagi chooses to capture the best moments on the streets, rather than having a photoshoot in the studio.
In the photo series, you can see how the beautiful ballerinas are dancing gracefully and the way it is captured in contrast to the urbane landscape in the backdrop. If you take a closer look, you will realize that Shitagi has also managed to capture the hidden expressions and feelings of the ballerinas in each of the pictures.
Ever since the inception of the Ballerina Project 14 years ago in Honolulu, Hawaii, the pace has kept increasing over the years, and off late, there were striking and wonderful pictures clicked. It was also shot in popular destinations such as New York City, Boston, and Toronto, thereby capturing the beauty of these cities in the backdrop. You can have a look at the wonderful work of Shitagi and you will be spellbound. To have a look at his other works, you can follow him on popular social media websites.
