Amazing Video Of Drum Circle, Light Dancing On Siesta Key

Photography blog GetawayMoments used a GoPro camera to capture time-lapsed photos plus video for a surreal view of a Siesta Key tradition.

The Siesta Key Drum Circle is a Sunday tradition for many at the world renowned beach, and the dancers with their LED hoola hoops and glo sticks provide a trippy scene after sunset.

Blog GetawayMoments tried to capture that feeling with two videos posted this past week featuring Siesta Key. They're both true works of art.

The featured video above is actually the second video after the blogger said they simply had so much raw footage, they decided to edit another video.
