Lars - this is the 2nd one that I have seen that looks decidedly very over-exposed. Are you going for a high-key effect? If not, you need to adjust your exposure. I might rate this a 2 or a 3 but I will give you the benefit of the doubt and rate 4.

Hi John

Many thanks for your comment. The "pale" expression is not due to overexposure, but are created deliberately, primarily through the use of the middle slider in the "levels" and using "curves", so the histogram is, in principle, ok - details in the highlights are just very weak. I've done it to try to create an impression of a pale, white, clean, clear and hard-to-reach, distant world - that is what you might call for "artistic" reasons rather than technical purposes. Whether I have succeeded with my artistic goal I will leave to others to judge - comments will be welcome.
