Dusk on Arrow Lake

A number of these photos have been taken just after the sun

disappeared behind the hills. I am curious to know how I can get

more details in the shadowed areas (the black-looking hills) without

washing out the sky?

For more details in shadows you can take two shots. One for lights or normal and second for shadows. You must use tripod to get the same view in both pictures. Then you can "mix" the photos in PS. There is of course one problem with this picture. How to get two identical views of water?

You can also use graduated neutral density filters
