Under the Big Top

For me, there's nothing more exciting than watching circus performers executing mesmerizing, miraculous and death-defying feats.
Their costumes, bespangled in bling, appeal to my over‑the‑(big)‑top passion for fashion. Work becomes play when I photograph these wonders of athleticism and showmanship.
