TDS member Michel Bricteux was attending a Mexican dance class in Madrid, Spain when he captured this beautiful image.

He mounted a 50mm lens on his Nikon D3X, set the ISO to 1600, then used Aperture Priority mode at f/1.4. The resulting shutter speed was 1/1000th of a second, plenty fast to catch this airborne dance in mid-flight.
