I usually get the exposure exactly right but if for some reason I can't then I underexpose by 1 or 2 tenths of a stop. I never overexpose the shot, not even by 1 tenth of a stop. Why? Because you lose details in the highlights and your color starts to diminish and, of course, you also lose some of the dynamic range. See image. I shot this in studio and although I often have my subject turn one shoulder to the camera, I had this subject turn both shoulders parallel with the camera. In my opinion I would like this image more if I had feathered the light upwards more but, alas, my little studio has a moderate amount of floor space but the ceiling is low (7 feet Yikes!). I usually have to put my subject in a chair or on a stool so I can get my key high enough.

Often times when I post photos of our nice weather I get a response of something like this:
We have a balmy -20 degrees today with the wind chill. Or, I wouldn't go outside unless I had to. Often times if you want to photograph something and the weather is a negative factor, then you can do what I did here: Set up some objects and a background and play with the lighting and create your own indoor photograph studio. I'm learning all about lighting now with the right angles, intensity of light and reflected light. There are many online helpful sites to guide you in the right direction for proper lighting. For these photos I have been experimenting and trying different things and learning from many, many very poor photos. When you experiment it is a great way of learning what works and what doesn't. These were among the photos that I felt were acceptable. All the rest I deleted but gained knowledge that can be used in the future for the next studio shot.
