You may recall that I had trouble with the exposures of these pictures. Informally speaking, this is because the camera tries to adjust for the darker interior and that makes the windows overly bright and blown out. With the two pictures here, I had to do some pretty extensive post-processing.
In class last weekend, the instructor taught all of us a great trick. Unfortunately, I think it only works with DSLRs. Turn on the flash, and use a shutter speed of 1/200. That's it! Nice and simple. An overhead flash is better, but I found that this worked just fine with my regular flash on my camera. Here's an example:
See? Nice, tidy, and properly exposed. Now that I know this trick, I should have better luck moving forward.
Tomorrow, I'll cover the importance of lines and angles - and getting them right.
