What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?
It was a cool day with scattered cloud cover. There were gusty winds, so I used my tripod -- although under normal conditions, it still would have been a good idea, but it wouldn't have been necessary. The light was unevenly dispersed with some highlights in certain areas. This was shot outdoors. No flash was used.
Advice
- I wish I had more time to shoot at various times of the day.
- Look for a cloudy day for this effect -- also, it makes the sky more interesting.
If You Remember, What Were the Camera's Settings?
