A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I am going to shoot an evening parade with Christmas trees and Santa and the like. Do you have any helpful tips?

I have a 50 1.2 and an 85 1.2 , 70-200mm 2.8 and a wide angle which I am going to bring. I have other lenses.

I took photos at an evening Christmas parade once. It was very hard to get enough light on people's faces. You probably want to figure out a good way to use flash for at least some of the shots.

I think I need to use a flash. I do have two 1.2 lenses that I am eager to try at this event.
