Get Pushed 464 A

Stephanie challenged me to learn how to use my camera's exposure compensation feature. She had used that to combine several photos into one. That will have to wait in my case. I did learn how it works and it seems very useful to have the bracketed exposure shots to choose from. Typical to my behavior of late, I waited until Sunday afternoon. I'm posting several examples on this week's dates. In each case the shots are shown in the order the camera takes them -- the one at the level the camera has metered, and then one that is underexposed by the margin set, and one similarly overexposed. This and the one on tomorrow's date are of the same subject with a slight difference in composition. In this case the bracket was set wider than the other and it's very obvious to the eye.

I think it’s marvelous that you are willing to try these kinds of things! I wouldn’t have the first clue how to begin.

Oh yes, very large differences in these shots.

@grammyn I wouldn’t have a clue either, but when I bought the camera I ordered a guide book to my model of camera — “David Busch’s Canon EOS Rebel T6/1300D guide to Digital SLR Photography”

I realized when I got it off the shelf how much I have not read or learned about the controls and features on that camera.

@randystreat This one is much easier to see the difference. I didn’t even try the widest bracket. I may want to do that out of curiosity and to try the “controlled over-exposure” technique challenge. I’m not sure what the difference is between that and “high key.”

@mcsiegle I guess controlled overexposure is high key. There's not much about it on the internet. Good question. Maybe one for the discussion section?
