I took this image in Cape May after ten o’clock when all the tourists were snuggled in their beds,and the two shots are for comparison to show what the scene really looked like before I added light to it. All the light came from either my spotlight,which illuminated the soldiers or my flash,which lit the church. I knew I was sleeping over in my truck that night so I stayed up till almost midnight wandering around shooting photos because I had nowhere else to be till I hit the hay.


Must have been chilly sleeping in your truck. Love night photography. Thanks for sharing both images.
Actually I am always warm,just not always comfortable. seems no matter how much padding I use,its just not like a mattress.
The light really made a big difference. I like the picture.
yes,I like the challenge
