Graceful Tension

Jeff Ball

The tension and strain in Roy’s body display a subtle strength.  As I adjusted the color in this photograph, I stopped at this level because it all at once emphasized the intensity of this pose while revealing a soft vulnerability.  The image simultaneously captures a graceful moment before rising and a possibility that he will leap from the photograph–the potential energy is enigmatic.
