Thanks Frank. The sky is burned out. At the backlight exposure, it went white. It's looking out over the ocean from the top of the palisades, so the light is pretty intense out there. If I had actually set up to shoot this, I would have added a reflector to bring the background and foreground exposures a little closer together. Paul
