So close!
Title:  So close!
Description:  After seeing this guy pull up to the light, we thought it was just a yard job taking head room. Wrong, upon zooming, we found it to be a pair of SD50's, and the lead unit is one of only 2 (I believe?) YN1 ones left. So I hurry back to the truck to grab my telephoto lens, and by the time I get back and set up, he is already heading back into the yard. Sadly this is the only shot I was able to get.
