Feedback

I guess the only advice I could give is if it doesn't work out the first or second time keep trying. I took about 20 shots before I got one that really stood out to me. Don't give up, learn from your mistakes and improve your techniques. I found for my experience with this shot was to let in as little light as possible, and find that sweet-spot between too washed out and not washed out enough. Just have fun with it and play around with settings until you find something that works well with your setup and light conditions.
