Rallying in Nepal

This photo was taken just before the 2008 elections in Nepal. Political rallies were ubiquitous and mainly peaceful, like this one. The ralliers of this photo were about to receive a reason to celebrate as the Communist party won the elections a couple of days later.

I shot this from a window of a moving bus with a high frame rate and subsequently merged the frames into this photo.

I've found the idea of ‘moving photographs’ interesting for a while now. This one is shot with a hand-held pocket camera in Zanzibar last spring. The technique used brings a level of sketchiness to the video(photo?), but I find it beautiful still.
