While many of the photos feature dancers in still poses, many of the photographs feature their subjects in motion, flour flying from every angle.

The magic doesn't stop with Yakovlev's flour shots, though; every single one of his photographs captures the incredible strength, control, and beauty involved in the movements of a dancer.
