Coney Island Mermaid with Umbrella- Jim Harp

Shot with a TL-120 and a Vivitar 285H fill-flash with plastic diffusor.   The fill flash is an important element in this shot, without it her face would have mostly been in shadow.     The Coney Island Mermaid Parade happens on the first Saturday after the Summer Solstice every year and is a wonderful opportunity to get interesting people shots.   There are plenty of photographers with interesting rigs who attend, but the TL-120 never fails to attract attention.
