I have been lurking around this fantastic forum for quite a while now and have never posted. The knowledge and expertise packed into the wonderful personalities of you posters has been truly a masterly education. Keep it up I am having a ball learning from all of you.
My question is this. When shooting metallic surfaces (specifically chrome accessories on mechanical engines, cars etc.) outdoors, I can't seem to capture the sparkle of the surface just right. I get close with either an ambient or spot with my meter, but no cigar. Tried color trans. and b/w. Tried a polarizer with each on some shots. Just not happy.
Another approach to this challenge is most welcome.
Regards to all,
Herbert Blount
