The picture isn't lying, just not telling you the whole story of how it was made.

Do they all look so cross eyed? If so I have never noticed. LOL
Don't know if they all do, but maybe if you were able to turn your head 180 degrees it might change the tension in the muscles to give your face a completely different look! :P

Probably if you get all of the grey together and then adjust to about 1/2 of what it suggests you use. Just don't leave it hanging over the lens or you won't get a good picture. :-)

I looked up 18% grey card on Wikopedia and they didn't list anything. Looking further I found a link that addresses the grey card - called Medium Grey.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_gray
One thing they note is that modern cameras generally treat Middle Grey as 12-13%. That might be why we have to PP photos to get the whites white in them.

Here are three more old barn photos. Let me know what you think of them.

The Deteriorating Side

That's what the article said - the palm of your hand is the equivalent to an 18% gray card. Since you would be metering the light through the camera and using the palm for a reference, it would represent the same light value as an 18% gray card.

The 18% gray card is used for setting the proper exposure for the current lighting situation. You can buy them at a camera store - cost more than I think they are worth. Or you can use the substitute that I read about years ago in a photography magazine article. Everyone has the substitute for a 18% gray card in the palm of their hand. (Makes no difference on ethnic background). Just meter it in the light situation and you will get the setting that that light condition calls for to achieve a balanced photo. This will work for black & white or color.

I was adjusting it to get the histogram right ... I had a different setting for each shot while I was adjusting
All these are straight out of the camera .. no editing except to resize
The last shot of the windmill was exactly what the sky looked like today

If this shot was exactly what the sky looked like, why would you expect the histogram to be expanded to the white side of the graph? If there isn't any white in the picture, don't expect the histogram to extend into the white. Not every picture has white in it and not every picture has black in it.

Not a pro and at this stage of the game I don't hope to be one.

It's not the brand of camera you have but the pictures you are able to get from it.

I have done that with my printer using the poster option. Can go up to 4 x 4 letter size pages. Print w/borders and it indicates where to cut and where to leave tabs for connecting pages together.
I would think that you could also print borderless, but I don't know how that would come out. Some shrinking or stretching might happen. I am happy with the results using the border option.

Polarizers will not reduce glare or reflections on bare metal objects.
Probably read more about this if you searched the web.

But the flowers will come up again this spring because I planted the bulbs in our flower bed. (They're just sleeping in the bed right now!) :D
