Learning to Moonwalk like Michael
Moonwalking. Michael Jackson wasn't the first, but he was the best at that amazing illusion of walking forward while moving backward. Hard as I've tried, it's just never going to happen. One less bucket list item.

Assignment
This week we are going dancing! As always, we recommend that you interpret this theme as wildly as you like, especially with the added creativity required for those of us who are confined to our homes during this time. You could portray objects that signify dance, like propping up shoes, or throwing a hat and cane in the air, or simply take a self portrait of yourself shaking it off in your living room! Movement in photography is often shown with the use of motion blur, so this is a great challenge to experiment with a slower shutter speed. Or you can freeze a dancer's pose with a fast shutter speed. Keep in mind that you do not have to photograph an entire body shot. Dancing can also be implied by focusing on feet in a dancing pose, an arm curved around a partner's back, shaking hips or a wild expression of someone with headphones on.
