Me thinks the shadow areas are dark and the sky is over exposed. Melvin should meter for the sky and then use fill flash to highlight the dark shadows.
pls pardon this noob question, need advice from experienced folks like u. few qns:
1. in such a shot what kind of metering should be used? i'm thinking center-weighted?
2. how do u meter off the sky 1st? u mean 1/2 press the sky in focus then drag it down to the car?
looking forward to ur advice. thanks!
point the camera to the sky and use your exposure lock button. This way, the camera will auto calculate and lock the exposure for the sky
my personal habit is to program tht button to do exposure lock only
zomg! theres a exposure lock function???! where is it? i use a canon....point the camera to the sky and use your exposure lock button. This way, the camera will auto calculate and lock the exposure for the sky

thats what i thought might happen with the method i know.... but redname seems to be talking abt a technique that can allow for BOTH sky and car to be exposed properly?And you will get a nicely exposed sky to show a silhouette? With the clutter background, u will just see a black mass at the bottom of the photo.
