Re: Large Format Landscapes
That is a pretty awesome picture for a near miss. In fact, if I could miss and still get one as good as this one, I'd be tempted to claim it as a happy accident. A metheod that might work would be to meter it just before sunrise, and set the exposure half way between that reading and the one you got for this one.

Last month was no different. My original intention was to shoot the entire morning on film. Alas, I'm still too chicken for that! And so, while I was busy capturing the best light with my digital rig, up comes the sun...out of nowhere! I quickly calculated my exposure and clicked the shutter. While I'm disappointed that the best color occurred just before this image, I'm still happy with the shot. Metering large format film while looking into the sun is not easy! And next time you sneaky sun, I'll be ready! But probably not...
