India has a number of tribal communities, and a few years ago I traveled to Nagaland -- an area in northeast India -- where I spent time with the Angami tribe. The picture here shows tribal dancers with the mountain backdrop that surrounds the village. This is a composite, though, because I shot this with a 200mm focal length (with a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens) and there was no way to have complete depth of field if I filled the frame with the dancers. Therefore, I took two shots -- one of the dancers and one of the mountain landscape -- and then put them together. My settings for the dancers were 1/500, f/4.5, and 100 ISO.
