When I first got into photography back in high school I bought a used photography book that explained all the basics of the medium. The book had a chapter on portraying motion in a photo, which was an idea that was completely new to me. The chapter had a thumbnail example of a dancer with tracers following and documenting her exact movement, and I was amazed by the effect.
That photo has been in my mind ever since, and since I have access to a studio and a 4x5 camera on campus (not to mention a beautiful dancing model), I decided to honor that memory.
