Thanks Paul.
The building across the street was in shade, sun high overhead but
slightly to the south (it was nearing 11am). The sign created a local
bright spot ... acting like a large lightbox reflecting back on the
man holding it and lighting him up a bit. I did a little dodging and
burning too to accentuate the light, the white and the black, etc.

Excellent shot. I love the light, but I'm confused. Obviously, the
two men are heavily backlit. Thus, they would seem to be in the
same light as the building. Yet they are much more illuminated than
the building. They are apparently lit by open sky and the
reflection off of the pavement. But why is the building so dark?
Did you burn it down or is the reduced light merely due to the fact
that it doesn't benefit from a pavement reflection?? In either
case, very nice work.
On the prowl with the Pentaxians on Saturday in San Francisco, I
spied this scene...
