Hi all, I wasn't really sure where to post this as you can guess by the title.
Its a picture of my dad when we were out photographing a lighthouse. I know it is probably wrong to call a 25sec shot a 'snapshot' but i just turned my camera and managed to catch him waiting on an exposure to develop. I don't do much (any) B&W so I would appreciate critique on both in camera and post and what I could have done to improve the image.
My opinion is that the foreground is too dark, but a few people I've asked have disagreed. I was using a graduated filter, but perhaps i could have used a longer exposure to capture more detail in the foreground but that could have washed out the sky?
