  1. Wow, the colors really pop on this one! Posted 6 years ago
    1. The explanation: previous night was near the end of my flash batteries, this night with new batteries. It makes a huge difference in exposure. With some persistence, I could get the duller one to look like this though during post processing, not sure why I failed that one. Posted 6 years ago
