There was very little detail in the white dress, and I didn't think keeping what little there was made a difference in the image, which was slightly overexposed. There was no detail in the reflected sky - featureless white. The bridge walk had some detail. What I tweaked for was texture in grass and foliage, with CS3 Levels Options set to clip at .01% of whites and 0.1% of blacks. I chose this overexposed shot because the woman turned towards me. I have another, better exposed shot with no featureless sky where she's turned away. Because of that, I didn't like it nearly as well.
I use a Dell 24 inch monitor calibrated with EyeOne Display. Thanks for your comments. Mark Jim Brick wrote:
