Hi Everyone ,
I've attached an image I took at the 'Animal Rebellion ' protest in Central london .
It was to promote the Vegan diet and show Animal Cruelty in the food industry .

One of their actions was to pour about 10 gallons on Cows Milk on the road .
I took these 2 photos but as you can see the milk on the ground caused lots on exposure problems , which could not be made better in PS ... It was ( to me ) a spur of the moment action so no time to make camera settings .. it was about 2pm with a very bright sun .

So I ask , what if any could have been done by me to improve the picture ... I always shoot one stop down all the time when outside .. could I have set the camera differently ' Just in case '
Its an OMD -EM1 mk one ..

Thanks

You quote-replied to me, but I am not the OP.

I've already asked the OP to upload an unedited image.


But you asked the question "even moving subjects?"

I answered yes because you are not going to merge them together. You will choose the -2 stop image instead of the image the camera made.

Your image was shot in 'Shutter Speed Priority' at 1/350s, f/8 at ISO200, this is just over 1 stop above sunny 16 and its overexposed. For info the Exif shows an EZ of -2.

Correct. The image is hopelessly overexposed and there is nothing anyone can do with postprocessing to fix it.

I suggest that you stop relying on the camera's meter and learn how to use manual exposure in broad daylight.

Light Value (LV) 15 is a safe way to avoid this problem.
