I’ve often wondered about this photo! Is it part of the dance to lift one’s partner up in the air like that? He’s lifting up the Queen as if she were a feather! Quite extraordinary! 🙂
I’m not sure about the step (I don’t know the first thing about dancing unfortunately), but it’s quite a striking image!
