Evidence of Friday?

Two more snow images, another lesson in exposure. These were converted to B&W using Fujifilm’s ACROS film curve in Capture One. You can see that they’re not as cool as the last image. They’re also a bit gray – brightening anymore was creating hot spots. The better solution would have been to set the correct exposure in the camera, not afterwards.

We had a little snow a couple of weeks ago. Shooting snow is always interesting. The camera’s meter is aiming for an average luminescence of something like 18% gray so the images will be too dark unless you brighten them up. Also, depending on the sky, the images will often be on the cool side.
