Using more than one exposure could help solve this problem. That is: 1. set your camera up on a tripod. Another thing that layers will allow you to accomplish that would be difficult any other way. My new course can show you how!

welcome adam, do not center the sun and don't use the reading that your camera sets. the sun will blow out all the highlights,it's just too bright at that time of day.even if you take a reading off the rocks,which will set a slower shutter speed,and will blast your picture with too much light. in horizontal put the sun to one side,pretty far if you can,and try again. now if there is a lot of humidity and dust, that will mask a lot of the suns brillance,but never center the sun unless conditions are perfect. then you added the reflection off the water to really muck things up.and a circular polarizer ain't gonna help much.changing iso or aperture won't help much either. you shouldn't even look through your camera at the sun like that,could damage your eyes. you did say avoid not fix?and since i'm on that line,do you have a clue on any photo editing programs? i'm just messing with ya folks. best of luck,sam

Graduated ND filters block out light in parts of the pictures. You could have it block more light from the top of the picture, and the whole picture would then be properly exposed. Do a search on ND filters and you'll find out good information. That should help you get a similar shot which is properly exposed throughout the image. Your lens needs to be threaded, though, to attach filters. Like Samuel suggested, you could edit the one you already took. Try brightening the shadows. If you have Picasa2, you could add "fill light". Ariel
