You've obviously got a good eye for composition and the scene. As has been said on here often enough, it's not the camera, it's the person behind it. Looks like your camera's got a good operator :thumb:
Garnock said:1. Fool the camera into seeing something diferent. That is using a neutral density graduated filter.
2. Taking two shots. One for the highlights and one for the shadows.The shots are then blended together in Photoshop or PSP etc.
kamion said:1) What's a neutral density graduated filter? If it's one of those things you put on the end of a lens, it won't fit on mine.
2) Hmmm. This method would need some consideration before hand. I'll try it next time, but it'll be tough to get the exact same shot without a tripod. Even with a tripod, I might have to turn the camera away to get it to adjust the auto-exposure to get the shadow or highlights.
