In my younger years, I was a drummer. I drummed a-ha-lot … until my mom sold her house, and I lost my practice space.
By then, I had moved on to singing because I got tired of lugging gear around.
Then, I became a DJ and Karaoke host with even more gear to lug.
When I started my film production company, I named one of them Little Drummer Films.
While I don’t drum much now, the lessons I learned from drumming constantly about timing and pacing live with me every day.
Anyway, back when I was drumming every day, my mother gave me this ornament and several more like it.
My lovely wife has turned them all into a beautiful drum garland we hang every year.
Both shots were taken with the 100mm Macro lens, 5d is first, followed by the 70d.
