Here is another of the “just visiting” shots of my father. This one was less about the buildings and more about the sunset. This image was underexposed -3EV to really bring out the sky. The colors were all there, but I did pull them up a bit in Aperture. I then hit him with the flash, a SB800 with the diffuser.

Now, after getting into Joe McNally’s Hot Shoe Diaries a bit, I wish I had tried something that he has done, which is to take the diffuser off and zoom in the flash. Maybe try a snoot. Something that would focus the light on the person and control the amount of light that hits the railing, which is kind of ugly.
