My version , if the tub is the subject , measure it and the snow
mountain...divide by 2 (the exposure) , will get an average exposure.
for overall exposure, I will add a square Graduated grey or NR filter
(like Cokin Square filter) on the top half of the image that cover
"A","B" & "C" area.
p/s: might shot in bracket and choice the one that I like...

Subject: [LRflex] HELP requested, badly - serious for a change
All,
I just posted a photo of a tub in the mountains as a joke, but I'd
now like to have your opinion on how to assess/measure light to
take a shot such as the original one. <http://tinyurl.com/3y6564>
I know there are several schools.
Some will even say, not feasible in those circumstances,
particularly with digital.
But I'd like to know from you, on or off-list how ytou would
handle such a difficult shot.
I have lettered what I think are the main areas in terms of what
should be seen or hidden in the picture.
This one was 100 ISO, center spot, 1/15th at 22 yellow filter on
and processed in LR as zeroed, then grey scale, before import to
PSE for lettering and size reduction.
All comments more welcome than ever, and suggestions desperately
needed if I'm ever to improve.
Thanks in anticipation
Phil...x
