Hi, Dave, I don't have any advice. I shoot mostly b&w, too (as you know), and have the same problem.
I think you owe Wheatfield a beer (he thinks two <g>), but he'll never see them, living in the Wild West and all. I definitely think you owe Brendan a beer though. I only posted this 'cause I want to be there when you buy Brendan his beer. Sounds like an excuse for another TOPDML meeting to me! ;-) -frank "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" wrote: > Ok B&W shooters - > > Here's the issue: how do you handle BRIGHT sunshine when shooting B&W film ? > > Basically what I'm talking about here is the problems I face when shooting outdoors, >mid day or in bright summer sun.
