I took this shot this morning. Took several of this train and made adjustments according to my histogram. My white keeps peaking right near the edge. Any suggestions?
Nikon D5000
f/5 1/640s 34mm
Aperture Mode
ISO 200
Interesting...
An old train becomes a canvas for taggers, which in turn, becomes a canvas for photographers... :D
As to the histogram, this image has very bright sky and a dark subject - a very broad dynamic range; it should be peaking on the right side, without going past the edge or the highlights will be blown out..
You then need to lighten shadows/darken highlights in post to balance the scene..
Very nice subject.. :thumbup:
