So, I decided to take a group shot of my staff here in Costa Rica. With us being IN Costa Rica, I wanted to have some nature in the shot (as much as I could find in the office park, anyway!), as this is kind of expected by our headquarters in Panama, Miami and Tokyo (cliche as it is).
Keep in mind that the shot I am posting is straight from the camera, so absolutely no editing has been done to it yet (I'll get to that tonight at home), but, considering that, I think it came out REALLY good (except for the one person on the left who was standing behind another employee, ignoring my instructions to stand BETWEEN the heads!). Still, any suggestions on the best way to improve on the shot are greatly welcome!
Shot details:
Camera: Sony SLT-A77V
Lens: SAL1680Z 16-80mm Zeiss
Focal Length: 55mm
Aperture: f/8.0
Shutter Speed: 1/90
Fill Flash (Sony HVL-F58AM placed on the camera's shoe) and tripod used
10 sec timer

PS: since the ground had a small drop to the right side of the pic, I had the taller people stand on that side to offset it; I used the in-camera level to make sure the horizon was spot on, though...
