Africa in Gorbio - the Singer/Dancer


This singer/dancer was fabulous and I have several photos of her singing but couldn't resist a shot that seems to show so much of her character. The small photo shows her doing the splits at the end of a crazy dance and the last one was taken whilst the group was rehearsing - she with her daughter on her hip.

Cette chanteuse - danseuse était extraordinaire et j'ai plusieurs photos d'elle en train de chanter, mais je n'ai pas pu me retenir d'en prendre une qui semble montrer autant son caractère. La petite photo la montre faisant le grand écart à la fin d'une danse folle et la dernière a été prise alors que le groupe répétait - elle avec sa fille sur sa hanche.

  6. Signature "Jilly" portraits and all fabulous. You have shown different aspects of her life with the accompanying expressions in these three shots. You never disappoint.
