RickDB 10 Posted March 2, 2011 A difficult shot against the bright background - it looks like you have reduced the brightness of the background but that has resulted in a halo. The monkey's face is really too dark. Fill flash is an alternative approach - set exposure the produce the darkened background (under expose) and let the flash light up the foreground. With a little practice you can readily control the balance of background / foreground light in-camera and avoid the halos. Cheers, RickDB Link to comment
vidisorin 0 Posted March 2, 2011 With all due respect, I'm not a beginner... yes all you say it's true but you should try flash one of the aggressive macaques from Ulu Watu. Anyways I made a sloppy job and that's it. But the compo looks fine to me (trying to be as objective as I can) and the EV on both "subjects" is dim but it seems just enough to me. Well I'm seeing it on a Mac ... maybe I should provide all viewers with iMacs .... tomorrow I'm buying a lottery ticket ... wish me luck! Link to comment
