Hi! True on all counts. I would guess shooting digital is like shooting slide film if you shoot jpegs. But shooting RAW is a whole different game, and the latitude is far greater. I overexpose a bit when I need shadow detail, and I will usually shoot right at the meter reading when I need

Well, Boris, the latitude is there, it just may be that the strong Israeli sun creates a much greater contrast range than in other parts of the world. OTOH, my comment was made with the idea of including post processing as part of the scheme. Not knowing what programs you're using, or what your

As Shel said, every shot is different. This particular shot has a large amount of black area. The meter of course is dumb and doesn't know that. This is definitely a case where you would want to add more exposure to an averaging or even matrix meter reading. I would gues that an incident or

Hi Frank, Thanks for your nice comments. It's an old store window, but the store is empty and has this odd art-like stuff. The store is inside a beautiful old building, the Palacio Barolo (http://www.albanogarcia.com.ar/Ventana/Barolo/index.htm) That's why the light comes that way. Regards

Near Fox Lake, Illinois. This was part of a system of wetlands and streams that feed into the Fox River less than 100 yds away. I also took a couple of shots of a bend in the river, but I want to take some more once there are some leaves on the trees to make it seem a little less dead. Glenn

G'day Glenn, It's potentially a nice moody shot, but It's a bit flat. I adjusted the levels, curves, brightness and contrast in PS and it makes quite a big difference. Just my 2 cents. Dave S On Apr 4, 2005 6:34 PM, glenn murphy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's a shot I took while walking
