Last night I attended the monthly Illuminate Workshops night photo shoot<\/a>. This month, it was held at Cherry Creek. Soon after we arrived at the meeting location, it started to rain. This was great because the streets and sidewalks become slick with reflections. I made this image just before meeting the rest of the group.<\/p>\n

Soon after starting the photo walk, we met in a parking garage for group shots and then we headed out. I met these three red ladies, part of the window dressing in one of the stores.<\/p>\n

Heading down one of the side streets, I noticed the limp, wet, red flags hanging from the flag staffs. These flags were located in a dark area, and required several seconds of exposure.<\/p>\n

Heading further down to 2nd Street, this bench was covered with puddles of water. I waited for a passing car to provide some additional lighting for this scene.<\/p>\n

Nearby is a large pergola covering the street. The underside is lit by several green and mauve floodlights.<\/p>\n

I seem to remember a hat store where I made some images at another night shoot last year<\/a>. However, I made a poorly focused image then. I took extra this time. Also, I noticed several reflections in the window that could be distracting on the second attempt, so I moved off to one side when making this image.<\/p>\n

An adjacent store had some menswear that added some color to the window. Looks like these may be neck ties?<\/p>\n

I continued down the street, where I had seen some patios chairs at the entrance to a 2nd floor store. Climbing up the stairs, I made this black and white image.<\/p>\n

These three lamps provided the lighting for the chairs.<\/p>\n
