St. Andrews Highland Dancing

So for my documentary I am doing Highland Dancing. My first glimpse at the competition aspect was at the St. Andrews Highland Games. The haar (fog) was pretty intense in the early afternoon, but it made it cooler for the dancers and as a former Irish dancer, I knew that the cooler weather was a blessing. There were stage moms, boys, girls, judges, and all sorts of politics. It was fun being a part of it without actually having to be in my dress competing and awaiting results from salty judges. Here are a bunch of frames I made that day. Enjoy and keep the comments coming!

So how hard was it for you to not jump on stage and dance along with them all? I know the feeling, it's like when I walk past the boathouse here in Heidelberg. The pictures look fab, keep them coming!
