Bus stop II

Shot this tonight around 9:30pm, it was already completely dark. The idea: get the bright light from the bus stop and mix it with the ambient light from the street, specially the restaurant in the background. To help pop up the name of the bus stop I used my speedlight off camera. After a few tries of manual adjusments to the flash power and placement I got this shot as a taxi drove by. It is a bit blurry due to the lack of tripod and a very slow shutter speed, 1/3 sec, but the light is there. Next time I’ll bring the tripod with me.
