Aurora Dickie, Rui Huang, Diana Albrecht, and Norton Fantinel

This is my second salute to Abbey Road!
My first was in NYC in 2008 (see below). Of course the original Beatles album cover is the classic and can never be equaled,
but dancers are in the business of recreating and performing the classics...sometimes with different choreography and costumes
but repeat the classics they do. And in that way they help keep the magic alive.

Check out John Potter's perfect making of shot http://www.pbase.com/fremiet/image/116745698

Brilliant chorégraphie.

I think I prefer the first one: they are 4 and having almost the same attitude. This strikes me more as being a tribute to Abbey Road.

Hmm. I think I prefer the first one. The second one does have the classic crosswalk of the original image, but I find it too busy. The dancers stand out more in the Capitol version, I think, and I tend to be drawn to simplicity. Both are good, though, so a tough choice.

I go with Nr. 2. It looks more relaxed and I prefer the city background to the Capitol. "V"

I think I like the 2nd image better cause it looks more spontaneous and not as posed, and it has the street crossing paint as seen in the Abbey Rd. jacket. I do like the background in the top shot as it does not distract from the people. But being more relaxed and down to earth I will go for the 2nd shot... looks more joyous. Both are great!

I use the words from Kees: Whow... floating as if they are completely weightless. What a perfectly synchronised performance and what a splendidly timed capture. Chapeau my friend, top notch work! Rosemarie :o) V
