Better shadow detail - Downtown Concord, CA

Uploaded: January 17, 2005

Description

f/5.6, 1/80 second, ISO 400, +1/3 EV
I think you can see more detail in the ceiling - beams, color of stucco, etc. but even this small adjustment is causing some highlights to be blown and the terracotta color doesn't look as warm to me. This probably would have been a good scene to use for the extra credit assignment - I might try to shoot this again when I have my tripod or when the light is warmer. Finding the subject was very good practice for me!
