The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: Before the show this afternoon, I spotted these boys practicing somesoccer moves in front of the theater. This is not an uncommon sight,with many picnickers bringing activities to enjoy the Festival groundsand the lovely summer weather. You can see some patrons gathering infront of the theater to browse our gift shop and pick up some snacks atthe concession stand.William Brown The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The other day, I was going around campus taking photos of some preshowactivities when I came across this view. I had been searching for a goodway to get a photograph of people under the trees picnicking, but it wasalways tough because the background would always be blown out if Iexposed for the picnickers. I then came up on this scene and knew thatit would turn out if I made them into semi-silhouettes against thebright background. The part that really strikes me though is how thetree trunks divide the image into four different scenes, each telling astory.William Brown The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: On Wednesday, we had on and off rain through out the day, but it seemed to break right before we had to head to the softball game. I walked out of the Malton Place Residence and spotted the rainbow in the sky. I then booked it over to the theater, where I knew exactly where I needed to be. I do wish it were a full rainbow, but I do like how it leads your eye to the flags and the theater.William Brown
