Hi konamtb good composition, and potentially a great pic, if your are shooting in RAW format can I suggest that the next time this situation arises, with all that reflective surface, that you under exspose by -0.5. This will give you the ability to bring the shot back into a load of different grades of exposure and you will have the ability to play 'tunes' with the picture. Hope you don't mind my comments best regards Ron - Keep snapping

cheers ron, getting to grips with new k20d, well chuffed with it though, the more tips the better, the more learnt the better the pics

thx

Hi Craig no probs I have been, check my profile, away from this game for so long the old rules don't seem to apply now so I am learning the PC side of the game, although the basic of exposure still apply. My golden rule taught to me by mentor years ago was try and get it right in the camera and the dark room work is easy, dark room you say! but I feel the same applies, do you want your own creation in the picture frame or what Adobe Photo shop version offers you! Keep up the good work, again my old mentor said simplest is the best. Best regards and keep in touch Ron

agree ron, want to edit as little as possible
i;m tryig to get it right in camera as often as i can, and with more pics will get it spot on as i learn more

Great Go for it! keep in touch Ron

Water Water everywhere and not a drop in the house.
Seriously, Ron is right, get it right in the camera, just fit a Polarizer to your lens when exposing onto reflective surfaces.
