19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Firebird jump 8 year old

My daughter is a competition dancer. We decided to catch some photos of her and this one was captured. She works six days a week to perfect her sport and at 8 years old her dedication is amazing. This is a special jump dancers do on stage. She was just learning it and messing around. I’m glad I captured something that shows her determination.
