    Default Live Mannequin at Lily's Lingerie

    Walked up Spring Garden Road in Halifax today and noticed that Lily's Lingerie had a live mannequin in the window. Tried sticking my polarizing filter on but that really didn't seem to help to much so I kinda missed the shot... live and learn. I'll try something different next time. Any suggestions? My first idea is to put the 70-300mm on and shoot from across the street where the angle might put more building (which is darker) in the reflection and less sky.

    how about shooting at night if the 'manequins' are still there since the show window would have more illumination than the outside area.

    Tried that. I went back at 4:00pm when I got off work...just a regular old boring mannequin :( You're right though, the light was much better!

    I'm guessing you didn't go in the store offering Bra Fittings. Shooting from inside would be glare free. Just saying.

    No, I didn't. You are right, it would have eliminated the glare but the idea was that she is a live mannequin... a different angle today produced these results.
