Walking across campus Saturday afternoon after MCDM orientation, Drew and I spotted this post-wedding staging on The Quad. As we approached, I could hear the photographer coaching the group. I sneaked in as close as I dared, as I didn’t want to mess up his shot by showing up in the background. This really called for a telephoto lens.
The final photo was seriously washed out; the gorgeous crystalline blue sky was almost white. The iPhone’s HDR was confused by that streak of sunlight on the other side of the gathering. So I did the only thing I could think of: a really tight crop! If I had it to do over, I might experiment with ColorSplash to see if I could focus attention on the shoes.
The couple got lucky with the weather: it was 76 degrees when I got home to Lynnwood!
(People! I’ve had back-to-back shots of people!)
