This was underexposed by a stop as I had wanted to avoid getting any of the folks here washed-out. It meant that the shadows had need to be lifted in post. This resulted in the folks becoming brighter than what I would like. So the area around the folks including them were darkened a tad to get this final image.

With a shutter speed of 1/640 second, motion blur wasn’t a concern with the palm leaves moving in the wind. I had only need to wait for them to be in the desired position and then released the shutter.
