I started shooting him in the sun, and when we started our conversation, we moved over into the shade. The balance was just right on the glass, so I picked up the camera and started to shoot. Only a little adjustment of the scan to add some black level, and a tiny bit of red to balance the blue of the shade, otherwise it is straight from the scan.
