Description:
This photo was taken at school during a marching band practice. Contrary to common opinion, marching band is actually a very rigorous activity. Members must march in unison to a beat with heavy equipment, all while playing difficult rhythms and pieces. Marching band members stay late out at night, stay just as long or sometimes even longer than other conventional sports teams. Marching band members are passionate about their art, and practice constantly to make their performance as flawless as possible. Here, I tried to emphasize the amount of skill, strength, and precision marching band takes, by exaggerating movement through the use of blur, while still showing the neat lines they form during their practice.
