Today is "Fat Tuesday" the culmination of the Mardi Gras season between New Orleans, La and Mobile, Al. Due to Covid-19 there were no Mardi Gras Balls or parades. No Jambalaya or Shrimp Po Boy. No throw me something mister. Hopefully next year things will start to get back to normal and we all can start celebrating our traditions and festivals. Attached are a few photos of Mardi Gras Balls of the past all occurring in Biloxi, MS. Have a great night and stay warm. Jim

Thank Y'all for all of the great help on this issue. Co. I have looked at Photomatrix and HDR. Something I am interested in doing. I always shoot RAW and when I Bracket I will take your advice by going +\- two stops. Thanks Linda for the down link. Will be looking at it in the future. Will also check on cleaning my sensor. Burkphoto I like the idea of EBTR and will give it a shot. In the past I have just attempted to do ETTR. Amphoto. A lot has changed in Biloxi since you lived here. Gambling is now legal for one. In 2005 Hurricane Katrina changed a lot of the landscape around here. My monitor is old and needs to be replaced. That is probably a big part of my problem with PP. I plan to purchase a good monitor for PP work in the future. Thanks for fixing my light house. Always thought it leaned a little to far to the right. I will also buy a calibrator to ensure the PP is not effected by the monitor. Once again I appreciate all of Y'all's expert advice on this issue of controlling light. Jim.

My first post last week, PixelStan77 said "Light is our language". He was right but controlling light or keeping light from being blown out is difficult. I find it hard to control "hard" light and keep the overall image presentable. Attached are some photos I took in the past both with hard light and soft or flat light. The first was yesterday morning in Biloxi, MS. with the sun shinning through the fog. The next image is Ocean Springs Harbor after dusk with the street lights blown out. The next image is the Biloxi lighthouse with hard light from the light house and the last is the same but with flat light. I try to use exposure compensation to control the light. Is there any other method to control the light????? All taken with a Nikon D7000. Thanks and have a great week and be safe. Jim.

Welcome aboard. You have some great images.
Enjoy your weekend. Remember, Light is our language. Where you have great light those images are superb.
Ask questions is a great way to learn.

Thank you Sir. Ever since I started studying photography, I have been noticing light or the lack thereof.

Been a member of this forum for quite a while. Just been reading, looking and learning. Very poor amateur photographer at best. I do enjoy getting out and taking images when I have time. It is a great escape from the pressures of my profession. I have attached a few images taken in the recent past of the area where I live which is the Mississippi Gulf Coast (Ocean Springs). Have a good rest of the weekend. Jim.
