So you think you can dance?
Yep, I went to that TV show... why? To support a dancer I didn't even know xD She was a colleague of a sister of my friend, so yeah I clearly knew the dancer. Even so, besides the boring part of being there one hour before the show with a boring guy talking to us, and the fact that we're standing the whole time (we only had 5min during the commercial break, and during that time we had to find a place to sit because we were so many it was almost impossible not to sit in top of someone else xD) it was worth to watch the show. It's a complete different experience watching people dancing on the TV and watching them live. Right now I have the urge to find some contemporary dance shows! I want to know more about this form of art. Fortunally, they allowed to take pictures without flash (hurray!) and I found paradise xD What I found out as well is that my camera sucks bad -.-;
Anyway! Here's some of the moments I captured! Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them ^^
This was actually the final, and the 20 top dancers were invited to open the show. I like this shot a lot but I must admit... her knee must hurt, am I right or what?
Marco Ferreira
Dancing to the sound of Carmina Burcana was amazing! This guy danced! He was the best and he won the show ^^
Marco Ferreira and Kelly Nakamura
And there's the girl I went to support! I loved her strength while she danced, I'm glad she ended at least on 3rd place.

The poor girl had one of her toes broken... I don't know how she did it specially with those shoes on.

I heard she took many painkillers before the show and you could easily tell that when she replied very slowly to the judges xD
Kelly Nakamura
Go Kelly! xD
Kelly Nakamura
João Lopes and Mariana Paraízo
The guy ended up in 2nd place and the girl in 4th place. There were many people saying he didn't deserve the second place but since I've only watched the show twice, who am I to judge?

I wished this picture had turned out better then it is -.-
Mariana Paraízo and Kelly Nakamura
Broadway style xD
And the final dance! They danced to the sound of Fame, the judges joined them and it was awesome ^^
And this is it!
I'm thinking of doing a photography project, something with some themes maybe... I was think of doing something called "Lisbon's Story". That's a name of a great movie, if anyone wants to meet Lisbon before visiting it that's the movie you want to watch. Anyway, it's way too hot to go to the old part of town to take these pictures -.- Come on, 40 degrees is way too much, give us a break! Still... I'm looking forward to do something like this since Lisbon is indeed a beautiful city. Well, at least the oldest part are -.-
Well, see you in the next post!
