Thanks Steve,
I used an ambient light meter for this one. This was done with a Rangefinder camera that I bought for 10 bucks. My friend found it in his attic while cleaning. The meter doesn't work. I use it with a hand held meter or I use Kodak Tri X Black and White film which has a latitude of 9 stops and try to guess the exposure. It's challenging and fun and I've gotten pretty good at it. This forces me to pay attention to what the light is doing rather than rely on a reflected light meter reading which can be way off. Especially with snow. Thanks for the comments ! #3792203
