Poet Inspired By Spicy Tango Photographs On Through Harold’s Lens

world_dance-149Through Harold’s Lens is emotionally moved to discover that the recent photographic series, Sensuality of the Tango, has provided deep inspiration to a poet from India, Jensy George, to create Lady in Red, a passionate 3-part poem of love, dance and revenge.

Going by the rapier blog handle, The Girl with the Scorpion Tattoo, the Sensuality of the Tango helped give Jensy the vision to unleash a powerful portfolio of words beautifully woven into a deep carpet of emotion, romance and intrigue. The Devil, fangs, red stilettos, seduction… it’s all there.

“An erupting Mt. Vesuvius of the heart and loins. I perspired as I read Lady in Red, said photographer Harold Green. “Her twist at the end was brilliant”.

It was a supreme compliment that the tango images gave Jensy inspiration to write Lady in Red .

“As a photographer, one of of my goals is to try to emotionally engage a viewer with my images”, said Harold. “When that happens, bells sound in my heart. A switch is flipped. An electrical connection is made. A person’s heart, mind or soul has been touched”.

Through Harold’s Lens also thanks everyone whose hearts were stirred, panting with passion, from the multi-photo series, Sensuality of the Tango . Your comments have been overwhelming:

What’s Up? Flavors From BA.

Sunday.

Streets are closed to auto traffic in the San Telmo neighborhood.

It’s a bizarre time!

Artisans, musicians, street performers and antique vendors from near and far are here to share their treasures and their talents with the public.

People of all nationalities are wandering, walking, strolling, gawking. It’s a unique and alluring experience.

Over here, there’s something weird happening.

Over there, what is that woman doing?

Where’s the reggae music coming from?

Sundays in San Telmo just go with the flow.

Abrazo*. Flavors From BA.

Casually sweeping through the barrios, under the overhanging trees and down the smoothly paved roads, the casual stroller is met with a variety of beautiful moving murals depicting the colorful culture of this magical South American city.

* A Latin American embrace.

High noon.

The warm, golden sun washes the city square.

You stand alone in your sultry, swishy dress with bared midriff watching the intertwined couples dance lustfully to the romantic and sexy music.

A tall, handsome man appears in front of you.

He bows gracefully. In a language you don’t comprehend, he asks you to dance.

Your reflex is hesitant, until you peer into his deep inviting eyes and roll over his tanned face.

Your finger tips touch with electricity as he gracefully escorts you among the other dancers.

Your afternoon is consumed in the arms of your stranger to the rhythm of the earthy music, the swish of your skirt, the twists and intertwining of your legs to the sensuous Tango.

This happens everyday, only in Buenos Aires!

The Story? Flavors From BA.

So what’s your story here?

A husband surprised by the appearance of his wife?

The husband covering his inebriated woman’s face?

Maybe just a sister who thinks her brother is goofy?

The clue is in his right hand.

The fun continues…only in Buenos Aires!

Stomping Rhythm. The Maasai.

_HMG1814AFRICA. The Serengeti Through Harold’s Lens:

The rhythmatic beating of the drums suddenly pierced the air.

From where I did not know.

Quickly looking around, multiple sets of feet began to appear from behind a mud walled, grass thatched hut.

To the shock of the Maasai, I laid down in their village dirt floor to capture this shot.

Against the roasted brown backdrop of the African veld, the unfolding, stomping line of bright colors of the Maasai dancers were quite a sight.
