Thanks, yea, I actually bought two 1/8 CTO gels on the way down there (could have been doubbled over to go as high as 1/1 CTO ...

but I liked the blue cast i was getting so I didn't use them

Hi, nope, that's the light coming from the sun (well sun is gone.. but that area of the sky)

This one looks good I like it. You might of shifted the camera to the left some so you don't lose your subjects in the building behind them but it's still a very good shot.

Again too much flash on this one I think.

Comment by Dirt_Diver:
I like the exposure of the background but I think you could have turned your lights down a stop. Or softened it up a bit to get rid of the look of the flash.
Other than that this one looks good.

Nice shot eric, the colours are great. Did you set your white balance to 2500K here?

*nostalgic sigh*

I missed that sign sooo much when I was last in TO. Back in the 80s my brother and I would coordinate our vacations, so that when he and his gf went off to say Mexico for 2 weeks, I'd book off work and go down to house/dog sit and of course wander around TO...though sad to say not with a camera, or at the time, probably nothing more fancy than a Kodak 110 or disk camera (remember those?)

Even so back then in my impressionable years, I knew that sign was special. So glad you captured it for us all, Eric! great work!
