Here's Richard, as he edited together one photo from each of the day's shoots into a projection image for the last shot of the day.

This is the coat rack with the hats and coats that were used as props throughout the day's shoots.
But when I saw it set up like this, it just looked cool. And when I got the film back, I finally figured out
what I had seen - two heads close together, as a couple slow dances under the disco ball!
This may be one of those images that looks like nothing to anyone but me, but I really like it.

35mm film scan - Ilford Delta 3200, shot @ 800
I had a few exposures left on my roll of film from the LACDA show the previous evening, and Richard had invited me to
take some "behind the scenes" shots during the Marathon.
It was a pretty busy day, and winding down into the last shoot, the only photo I had shot all day was the one with the
hats on the coat rack, which ended up being "Dancing Together" (2nd photo in this album).
So I figured, sure, the light from the projector might be just enough for me to get a reasonable exposure. I had set my ISO
to 800, because I knew the gallery would be bright indoor light. So it wasn't really the most ideal setting for shooting
in the very dark studio. But the brighter projections were indeed bright enough to give enough light to shoot by.
I ended up trying every one of my and Gremlin's lenses, trying to get a wider view of the room with Richard shooting.
But the 12-24 lens only goes to f5.6, and there wasn't enough light for that. So I ended up just doing some shots of the
projections themselves with Gremlin's 50mm prime.
I figured, the b/w shots, taken in between most of the poses Richard was shooting, are different enough from the "official"
shots, to hopefully not infringe too much. And of course I'm not publishing mine as fine art images or prints - just documentary
images. I do like how they came out though.
