Slim Pickings

The best I could do yesterday in a walk-about.I did find that using exposure blending worked well, producing undistorted results quite painlessly.

I set up the 40D to shoot three images with +- 2 stops as well as correct. I took the images right from Bridge into Photomatix Pro Standalone for exposure blending, minor adjustments to the blend point and saturation and save the output as 16 bit TIFF.

All that was required then was to edit the images in Photoshop as usual. I think this is the technique to use for sunny day shooting. Will have to try it on landscapes too.
