Title: Olde Smokehouse
Location: Cameron Highlands
Time: Day Time
Remark: I took this shot by setting my camera to take multiple bracket exposure (-0.7, 0 and +0.7). Then, using photoshop to combine them and adjust the contrast and level. To minimize the washout of the blue sky, I centre weighted (metered) the roof of the cottage, slightly in between the blue sky and the roof top. Enjoy!
Tim's Remark: The sky, as you mentioned yourself, is a bit burnt out. The direction of the sun is another reason for this.
by Tan Eng Keat
