BTW, I like this shot. The light is normal from an open sky source when shooting in the shade. Good work.

Subject: Exposure Curiosity

Hi Everyone:

While in a shady park downtown at around 6:35 p.m., I took these photos of my husband, Darrel. It was really shady in the park, so as you can see I bumped up the ISO and opened up the aperture. When I looked at these in
Lightroom, I had to check to see if I had used the flash, but I  didn't
remember doing so, and the metadata showed I didn't. Doesn't it kinda look
like I did?  Or have my eyes just gone wonky?

Anyway, fun to get a true white of my husband's beard. He started to turn
gray in high school, but now his hair & beard are white.


Darrel 1:  K10D, DA* 50-135mm 50mm, ISO 800, 1/13 sec @f2.8

Explanations welcome :-)

From reflections in the specs, it looks as if there is a large (sky-sized....) bright light source behind you. As you have exposed correctly, the camera has produced an image that has, if you like, the standard amount of light to produce a good, bright image. The lighter clothes and beard have come out brighter than the darker background vegetation, as you would expect.
