This location shoot was a real challenge with a mixture of tungsten, fluorescent available light and bar inside. But with a few strobes to accent the very dark antique bar and the fountain as well as the pool and roof line, this twilight scene comes off inviting and well lit. It also points out the balance of timing when doing this type of shot. Just 5 minutes earlier or later can change the balance of available light and twilight sky. 1-4 seconds @ f 8
