Day of the Dead

Sunset at the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City. There is a great spot to shoot this iconic location from a cafe. I ended up having great light so this is a single frame with just a few highlight saves in the sky from an underexposed image. I thought about removing all the people, but I really like the dynamic they add to the image. Just after sunset a massive crowd emerged and I was trying to figure out what was going on. Turns out it was the day of the dead parade and I had to navigate that chaos on the way to the airport.

Thanks! I was fortunate to have such a gorgeous sunset for my only opportunity there.
