S.P cover #4- 2012.
On the cover, Milica Paranosic,
and Patrick Grant.
Composers Concordance festival part 5("Ensemble") @ William Paterson University, New Jersey. 

The last of a five part series featuring composers performing within an ensemble, wraps up one of the most eclectic contemporary music festival of the season. This performance was conducted by Dan Barrett, also a composer/performer. I had the pleasure of driving to the university with the some of the performers early in the day, arriving @ about 2:40 pm. I got to watch the rehearsal as well as the main event(@ 7:45pm). It was a great day.

This is looking out to the parking lot
through one of the rear exit doors.
The small glass was covered in a blue film.

These triptych images were created with the
panoramic setting on the camera,
no photoshop. The middle shot is from
the stage, the other two are from a small
old T.V at the side of the stage with a camera recording the stage. 

The blue orbs are a light back stage.
I put the cameras very close to it, which made the
middle image(2nd shot) a little darker.

Using the Panoramic setting based on light intensity,
Balance, depth, and artistic impulse often yields
strange unique images.
