From the 2026 Coney Island Mermaid Parade. TL-120 with Provia 100F pushed one stop. Handheld, most of the day I shot at 1/125 using f16 or 22.

I used a Canon 600EX flash at full power here – this is twice as much light as the Vivitar 285H I’m used to using with this camera. Without the flash our fry lady’s face would have been mostly shadows.
