This photograph is part of a series shot at the New York City Ballet in 2013 featuring six of their star dancers, including Wendy Whelan, Gonzalo Garcia, Ashley Bouder, Sterling Hyltin, Lauren Lovette & Lars Nelson.

In this image, Richard Phibbs focuses on the legs of Ashley Bouder, principal dancer with New York City Ballet since 2005 and celebrates her extraordinary speed, technique, and attack which makes her an audience favorite. Through his unique usage of light and composition, Phibbs brings a feeling of grandeur, a theme very dear to the artist who is always on a search to connect us to the beauty and elegance that surrounds us.
