The lady drummer (1 of 3)
Tamagawa University Taiko and Dance corps (Tamagawa Taiko) performance 4/14/2014 at Ursinus College. Women are permitted to play a small variety of drums while appearing in feminine garb. Larger set pieces with players dressed in traditionally masculine costume can have women participating, but they are not given the same prominence as the males (no solos to attract attention, not positioned in most visible front rank, not providing the occasional yell that punctuates the physical routine).
I was revisiting older images during a free trial of Topaz clarity and found this portrait. I neglected to make it public but Flickr's camera roll helped me discover and remedy that. The "portrait 1" preset in clarity was used to enhance contrast.
