Description

5/12 EoD

Every year I play (brass quintet) for a local university's graduation. The people who run the graduation are great and I am always impressed with how the ceremony runs with clockwork precision. While waiting between ceremonies, I grabbed a shot of the chairs just after they were set up.

Thank you, everybody, for the wonderful comments. It is funny, I have played this ceremony for no less than 90 times, and this was the 1st time I "saw" all the angles (they were there, I just didn't see/notice them). #7525398
