Returned home from the trip to Ocean Pond and Olustee, ate left overs. Saw that the sky was doing interesting things so hopped back in the car and headed south, this time to the large oak in the field at Old Country Club Road. Few shots there, then down Old CC to stop at the high hill field. Few shots there. Then on to 41 South and turning at Arky Rogers onto Jim Witt Road. Noticed the old red building that was once leaning is now a rubble. I have photographs to remember it. Stopped by the nice barn in front of the pond and shot a few. That was about it. The unnatural sky set and I made it home for the usual Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy.
Struggling of late with the metering on the camera, no matter what I do, the exposure being about the same. I like to underexpose and I have really had to manipulate settings lately more than wanted. Ended up for the most part with spot metering and manual. I have tried A and S priority, having to crank down the exposure compensation to almost minus two at times. I must have auto ISO or something wrong.
Always learning, never able to come to the knowledge of the truth they say.
The top shot has been worked in Picassa with the HDR. The second untouched.
