[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 172642, member: 12198"] Well, I'll see what I can salvage of my highly frustrating waterfall photos We were out of town and I only had the one shot at them. It was after a huge downpour and the sun was setting behind the mountain putting us in the dark but above in bright light. Am I correct in thinking that my next learning attempt should be HDR?? Would this have helped me in this very high contrast (beautiful but FRUSTRATING) light? Oh these aren't salvageable! Just hoping someone will let me know if learning HDR would have helped me here or not [ATTACH=CONFIG]44196._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]44197._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]44198._xfImport[/ATTACH] When I tried to meter for the trees and waterfall my sky and the beautiful wet glowing mountain top above are blown but if I meter for the sky everything is soooo black :( [ATTACH=CONFIG]44199._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]44200._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
