Drumming on the beach.
Sagaponack, NY

◙ I chose to layer up the light with a 3 shot Multiple Exposure, as a way of expressing the energy of the drumming, along with a sense of the musician's movements,

◙ The very red toning is not a white balance issue, but rather a considered choice to augment the primal feeling of the experience.

◙ Allowing some of the highlights to clip, and introducing a heavy grain, I thought would suggest a feeling of rawness.

◙ 3x at 1/30 sec - ƒ/2.8 - ISO 2500 (hand held)
Nikon D700 w/ Zeiss 35mm ƒ/2 ZF Distagon
