Rhythm of the Ocean by TeaPhotography on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Dedicated to my good friend Melinda :iconravingeaglemedia:

I've known Melinda for a long time on dA, but really only in the last few months, have I had more of a chance to really "GET" to know her...
... and let me tell you, it's been a joy, and she's just truly fabulous!! :heart:

Melinda and I were talking about a drum circle, that I had attended both as a participant, and as a photographer.

And she said she hoped to see photos of it, sometime,
so I decided to dedicate my favourite one to her. :heart:

Actually, when I first began to photograph the event,
the first of what is supposed to be an ongoing community activity,

I realized my camera was broken, and in such a way, that I could not fix it quickly on my own in that moment!
I called "tech support" and was guided through my owners manual, [which is always also with me] and fixed the problem!
This was my first test shot!

And yes, it was a COLD, foggy, and cloudy day, in August! :nod:

The others have people in it, and I was not sure if I could upload those as a result, but honestly this is my favourite because of the view of the ocean right behind it, and these particular drums. :aww:

My own drums are not in the photo, however, but I love the ones that are!

It was such a fun and amazing event,
and I truly hope there will be more!

Photographed at Sportshaven Beach, Brookings, Oregon, USA.

Some crazy sounds and rhythms, from a band I've liked for a long time... [yes, my music tastes are very eclectic,
and NO, we did not sound like this... :aww: ]
