Does this mean that you are upgrading your camera and traveling with a laptop equipped with photo editing software, or are you planning to hire me as pack mule and photographer :)captainorangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533409447527050625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402604.post-40694143946032426892012-03-29T08:11:41.112-06:002012-03-29T08:11:41.112-06:00After a little reading I learn that light scatters...After a little reading I learn that light scatters the exact same way from cloud as snow which is why these pictures look the way they do. The light really is indistinguishable under those conditions. Only by compressing and disturbing the snow does the light scatter differently (and only just) which you managed to pull out with your filter.and then the_doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12648947724821535410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402604.post-73520060570223209952012-03-27T15:56:31.563-06:002012-03-27T15:56:31.563-06:00Many cameras come with various qualities of HDR (H...Many cameras come with various qualities of HDR (High Dynamic Range) which would give you a lot more detail in those white areas. I fear that the small screen and high glare when viewed out of doors would make your pine boughs preferable. The problem is that proper HDR actually takes 3 identical shots. You need a tripod for that.captainorangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533409447527050625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402604.post-1578312959932534142012-03-27T15:44:29.641-06:002012-03-27T15:44:29.641-06:00Fascinating!

I wonder how much a really good camera could provide those contrast details at the time? Much like how we used a camera to get a telephoto look at the possible watersource on Mt Muir trip. I've adopted the habit of grabing a couple small spruce boughs before venturing into "no detail" terrain like this to hurl over rolls to get a sense for potentially dangerous terrain but if a good camera could do it, that would be cool.and then the_doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12648947724821535410noreply@blogger.com
