A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I have been commissioned to shoot an evening Christmas Parade. I have never done one. Any tips? (alien.top)

I am going to shoot an evening parade with Christmas trees and Santa and the like. Do you have any helpful tips?

I have a 50 1.2 and an 85 1.2 , 70-200mm 2.8 and a wide angle which I am going to bring. I have other lenses.

I'd probably go 85 1.2, 70-200, and a ultrawide. If you're far off from the parade then maybe a little longer but I feel like that'll cover you.

Thanks. The 14-24 2.8 should be good for establishing shots.

Yeah that'll do.
