Two photographers, Theresa Knox and Danny Schweers, show dance in different lights. Theresa's beautiful black-and-white portraits show us a motionless dancer while Danny's colorful swirling abstracts how us what a dancing camera sees. While Theresa's work shows a fascinating person in detail, Danny's long exposures show a kaleidoscopic world of light.

Galleries:
Spinning in the Kitchen: 24 long-exposure photos made while spinning on one shoe with the camera rotating with me.
125th Anniversary Banquet of Westminster Presbyterian Church, Wilmington, Delaware. Getting good photos of an event like this is difficult but, because so many of the people knew me, they were relaxed and smiled easily. I'm proud of one or two of the photos. I worked at Westminster for four years, and the church still publishes my Photo Prayers in its weekly e-newsletter.
 The Arden Fair 2011. Here are 71 of the 448 photos I made that day. I would have shot more, but I was working traffic control.
Photographing Quick Paper Sculptures. This in-class exercise was photographing paper that had been folded, rolled, and crumpled.
Painting With Light. Click here to see the results as I experiment with this technique.
Photo Prayers: The Wilmington, Delaware News Journal featured my Photo Prayer project in its first issue of 2011. These prayer pix are emailed to subscribers, usually every week. Click here to subscribe to my Photo Prayers.
 Salted Cars: After snow storms, salt spray dries into fantastic patterns on the sides of vehicles. Walking around a parking lot is like walking through a gallery of abstract paintings. The salt and melted snow, thrown onto the vehicles as they moved down the road, has dried in many different shapes and textures.
Photography Business Advice: Someone just starting out wanted my advice about the business of photography. Here's what I said.
