Thanks pradeepjoseph81... heres some info on KPM 789 album "Piano Worlds" -

Poignant, piano-led soundtracks to stimulate the creative mind

Album Information:

Piano Worlds collides and combusts with creativity and promise. It ignites and inspires imagination with a beautiful and unusual approach to modern, classical chamber music. Piano Worlds is a stunning album featuring pensive piano and sentimental strings; spanning from ethereal electronica to driving indie drums.

I dont find the layered photos worthy. The picture should reflect a true object in space and time or timespace. To impose or enhance the photo is a false image. Good for research but most people want a "HONEST" photo. Not fantasy. Time laps is not fantasy But most people realize hey, this is time laps. an X ray is not what you see but is good for science research.
