Old Friends

Sue and John, matriarch and patriarch of the finest family I know. 40 years of friendship, and with the age differences, spanning almost 4 generations. Safe journeys, friends.

Beryl was a washout except to give some of the heaviest fog and cloud cover I've seen at the Vineyard. This was taken ~6p when the sun is usually brilliant red and blue. Dense fog and a light sprinkle of rain. I'm gonna be believing NOAA before weather.com anymore.

Canon EOS 5D
1/160s f/11.0 at 70.0mm iso200 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

the overcast actually kept them from squinting, so cloud cover was a good thing =)

Nice portrait.
I am glad Beryl did not live up to all of the media hype.

Your 5D and flash set-up is awesome for outdoor portraits! You got some smart subjects there to help make a perfect family portrait.
