Exploring St. Augustine

Last night I was a bit restless, so I decided to take a little ride to find something to shoot. I can always count on St. Augustine for having a wide variety of subjects to photograph.

This one I had shot one time before on Astia slide film, but it didn’t turn out as well as I had hoped. So this time I went back to shoot this on the digital. I used a small pen light to help illuminate the shadows, and bumped the ISO up to 800 to capture this shot. I took several shots to check my focus before capturing this one. I wish that I had someone sitting really still on one of the benches for a little human intervention, but finding willing participants are not easy.
