When walking through Toronto recently, I noticed this picture you saw a few days ago:
Tip One of the day: when you see an interesting colour, take a shot (which is why you always have a camera handy – right?).
Tip Two: And as said in a post a few days ago, please do not automatically shoot it from 5 feet above the ground. See if tilting, or getting down on the ground (as here), or standing on a chair gives you a more interesting picture.
Tip Three. Use a little fill flash (as I mentioned the past few days). The Fuji X100 and its tiny fill flash did all this.
Let me share how boring this shot is when shot from higher up and without fill flash:
Point proven.
