The Blue Hour

My tripod was rendered inoperable, the buildings had no lights and the light was fading fast ! Already got the quick shots of the different spots and as we headed to the main feature ( which were the pagodas in the background)
when the security guard comes over and says there was a power trip and the building lights don’t come on until the festive seasons ! Too BAD!!!! Already drove all the way west to scout out some backdrops and ready to grab a nice picturesque landscape shot and this had to happen. The silhouetted pagodas still looked pretty cool tho.. hmm…..

In goes Bucky a.k.a Jonathan Kuah who came along for the scout with his trusty EOS 400D. Exposed for the background and brought Ol’ Bucky back with a speedlite into a silver umbrella.
