Light as a news item! As what would seen to be obvious, the quality of light and the news item itself are on opposite sides of the pole priority wise. You just can't wait for the light to change as Monica climbs out of that Limo. You have to just GET THAT SHOT. Make sure your strobe is turned on! There are plenty of visually stimulating facades and edifices Downtown Portland as the Sun comes up. Would something interesting or newsworthy be happening in front of these facades? Not much luck so far! People sucking down their last Cigarette as they walk to work early. I need Baby shoes where do I get them????!!!. Mark Rabiner I guess if someone got a Pulitzer for a Monica shot the light must have been darn good!
