I haven't posted for months but there hadn't been much events for photo opportunities then finally a night parade in Waikiki. This was the memorial parade for the veterans and also the survivors of the Pearl Harbor Attack. It was dark by the time the parade got to my street and I hadn't taken night shots for a long while and had really struggled. I used my 70-200mm lens but my flash just didn't have the reach. I had to do a lot of fixing in PSE. 
I learned that because my flash had a short reach, I had to time it just right to hit the subjects at the right distance. It was a real hit or miss..then it'd be PSE fix.
My all-time favorite float.. I have no idea how they got this on the road all the way from Ford Island..It was an awesome sight.
There were these cool cars doing crazy wheelies.
The guy from Hawaii 5-0 made a guest appearance in the parade too.
My favorite pic of the night. This for me sums up how the participants and the people watching the parade felt. I was really glad I made it to see the parade.

Nice coverage of the parade. Your lighting looks good, you can't really tell it was post processed. Hey, that is the 5-0 shrimp truck guy. Kamekona or something like that. LOL
