Ballet at Oakwood School, Chichester ...

After a busy weekend of sports photography and a late Black Tie, I had a fabulous, creative Sunday to look forward to at Oakwood School.  The girls (and a few boys) from Sue Bethel's Sussex Ballet School had ballet exams this weekend.  Oakwood House is a large Georgian country house with floor to ceiling bay windows upstairs. As soon as I saw these windows, I knew I had to use them. My favourite is when the older girl came running up first and she was performing an arabesque in the window when her mum came in and said, "She has my ballet shoes on" ... if you look closely, you'll see they are way to big and she is holding on to the window for dear life ... but still as graceful still ... enjoy.
