Ezra Millstein: Brazil's Carnaval

Image Copyright © Ezra Millstein-All Rights Reserved
Ezra Millstein is from New York, and has lived, traveled and studied thoughout Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin and North America, as well as the Middle East. Most of his travels has been on his own, but some are a result of his work for the Peace Corps, WWF, Grassroots International and the National Geographic Society. He won numerous awards, including being selected as a finalist in the Smithsonian 4th Annual Photo Contest.

With a peripatetic traveler and prolific photographer such as Millstein, it was difficult to choose a specific gallery to recommend among the many good ones he lists on his flash-based website, but I chose his images of Brazil (click on Brazil and then Carnaval). His one-before last photograph of the series is just the funniest picture I've seen in a while, but I chose the one above to illustrate this post as it pulsates with rythm....and it has motion blur! For me, dance pictures must have motion blur...otherwise the dancers seem frozen.
