There is much generosity, beauty & magick in the bellydance world, and apparently the VA/DC/MD area has claimed a fair bit of it. ^_^  

For me, the best photos start a soundtrack going in the mind.. make me think of stories and possibilities of epic-ness.. and these photos definitely do.  I find these images incredibly powerful & evocative, & I hope you do, too. :)
