Tricky Exposure<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Over the years I have found many people (solid intermediates) who do not understand the exposure. ie How to make snow scenes come out white in the camera. Exposure is tricky!!<\/p>\n

Drab Gray Snow<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Years ago I stood behind an ‘experienced’ hobby photographer at Proulx Brother’s lab<\/a> who was explaining that his uninspiring arctic winter photos were caused by the drab snowstorm weather… I kept quiet.<\/p>\n

Really, his photos were underexposed because his scenes were filled with white snow that all cameras in the world (with built in meters) try to make a drab gray… unless you know how to compensate.<\/p>\n

Bear Hug<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The Creative Fundamentals photo course went well. I like the sound when a light bulb pops above a student’s head. One participant gave me a bear hug after she had a breakthrough! Oh, I do enjoy teaching. We follow up with critique on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
