Triplets

I knew I had messed up the exposure when I blew out the sky big time.

And in doing this, I spoilt the only chance I had to capture this shot, for

the person in the middle turned around and soon after, they all left the

place. I tried to recover the blown out background as much as I could,

but to no avail. Please suggest any means of achieving the same.

Sam, this is what is called the photographic moment. Its nicely balanced. when I see a moment like this I don't care about other things. But if you insist why don't you just grey a bit, the sky I mean? And also crop the litter in the bridge, give a widescreen feel, just thinking loud......
