Photo Slideshow: Tango in Argentina
Photographer Bob Krist treats us to a slideshow of tango photos taken while on assignment for the magazine in Buenos Aires. He tells us about the shoot:
I was planning on doing a “little” tango photography as part of the assignment, but I quickly got hooked on shooting it…in the street, in the milongas (neighborhood tango clubs) and the theatrical shows.
This obsession involved a lot of getting up at midnight and staying out till 4 a.m., and then having to go out the next morning to shoot the “regular” parts of the assignment. I was exhausted, but I just loved watching (and photographing) the Portenos doing their thing.
Learning how to tango is now on my bucket list….although the world might be a better place if I just stuck to shooting it and not necessarily doing it!
