Description

Weather balloons, awaiting release. Backlighting of the balloons from sun in lightly overcast sky. This is one of those images that looked very different in person. In post-processing, I found that if I knocked down the exposure, all sorts of contrasting details could be seen in both the sky and the balloons. This is one of my favorite self-produced images!

Exif: F Number: 14, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/400 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 44.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS REBEL T1i
