Telephotographed from down the street

One handheld RAW // HDR // Shutter: 1/25 // Aperture: f/9.0 // Focal Length: 400 mm // ISO 400

This is another shot from a couple weeks back, Friday night, Crossroads District. Looks like we have a possible father/son duo here.

When prepping this photo, I realized that the Image Stabilization on my Canon telephoto lens I used really saved this shot, given the relatively long shutter opening, in low evening light, at a focal length of 400 millimeters. WIth some things, like photography, us young kids can get away with more than those generations who preceded us.

And I note also that the world didn’t seem quite as dreadful when I took this picture as it does now. Eh…nevermind.
