Here are a couple more shots from the Bay Area Photo Club's field trip to Galveston on Saturday night. These shots are of a free outdoor movie being shown in the small park at the corner of Strand and 23rd in Galveston (the movie was "Some Like it Hot").

I think I like the close-up shot the best. Going the other way, it would have been nice to be able to photograph it from the balcony at Fuddrucker's or from another high vantage point in the are. Somebody we know would have talked there way on to the roof of an adjacent business - no names.
It appears that people needed to bring a chair to enjoy the movie. I can see that Larry is thinking about next month's theme.
Thanks Larry and Wayne!
Larry - No names? How about initials - LJP? :-)
Cheers!

Boy, you will try anything. These are really tuff shots to pull-off--well above my pay grade. Both shots are interesting, but in different ways. I like your post processing, it brings out the overall nature of the scene very well.
Thanks Patrick!
What do you think about the lens flare? Should I have cloned it out? Looking at these shots now I think I may have made a bad decision by leaving them in.
Cheers!

For me, I don't think this is a case where the flare hurts you. It doesn't take away anything from the picture, at least in my mind it doesn't. Does it bother you, or are you afraid it bothers someone else? If it's you, do something about it. If not, who cares?

Thanks Doug!
I'm with you in that I didn't really feel like the lens flare was distracting, I just wanted to see how other felt about it! Thanks for the feedback!
Cheers!
