Upgrading lenses

[William Michael]

<p>Sorry that's a bit small - this shows it better:<br>

<p>But hopefully this also shows that there is not really a lot of detail in those dark shadows and that my point is to bias the original exposure to nail the Subject in the best light, would have been better.<br>

<p>I did take some shots with different exposures as I was specifically playing with exposure! LOL I will have to go through those and see what the effect was. I do not use a hood or a filter. I am sure the lens was wide open. I tried to get closer to get a better shot without having to zoom in so far but he was way too interested in the camera when I as closer and I couldn't get him to focus on the splash, which is the part he was enjoying so much. I really appreciate your input here and your help. This has been one of the nicest forums I've been on--where people are genuinely trying to help! Thank you for that! Also, because of where we live mornings and evening are still way too cold for much play outside. My new (used) lens will have a hood, so it will be really fun to play with that!</p>
