Verzone has spent years photographing something

that’s hard to capture: joy. Often it’s serendipitous.

“Ninety percent is unpredictable,” he says. But he

suspected he’d find it when he went to Scotland in

spring 2017 to cover Highland dancing, originally

done by men during wartime but now performed by

all in lively public shows. Verzone trained his lens on

some of the country’s most talented dancers as they

practiced for the Highland games. For days he mar-

veled at the displays of athleticism, energy—and joy.

WHO

Based in Italy and Spain,

Verzone focuses on convey-

ing his subjects’ spirits as

well as their experiences.

WHERE

Arthur’s Seat, a volcanic

peak in Edinburgh, Scotland

WHAT

Phase One XF IQ160 with

an 80mm lens
