I just missed out on a wonderful sunset that unexpectedly developed under a cloudy sky.

I just caught the last dip and metering indicated LV ~11 at the sun halo and EV 2-3 in the shadows.

With me I have a 3 stop reverse grad, a 3 stop hd grad and a 2 stop soft grad alone with Velvia 100.

The metering indicates ~ 9 stops of dynamic range that needs to be covered.

Pulling out the 3 stop reverse would get me down to 6.

So to correctly expose, should I meter just next to sun halo, then open up 1 and 2/3 and then open up another 3 stops (to compensate for reverse grad and let the shadows fall as they may?
