Tiercel 6,986 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I just looked out the window and the light looked like rain due. Is it possible to convey that in a photo? Bit off the wall I know, but just something that struck me. Something like the light you get when snow is due in the winter. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cleanspade 3,324 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 yes. its possible to get an image of what you see. have a look into white balance. this is key to producing an image as close to what you see as possible.with light and colour. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Funnily enough, I have been looking at the Kelvin chart for lighting recently, Trying to get LED bulbs of the right warmth of lighting for the house. Thanks.

J Darcy 5,871 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Buy a filter kit. And a tripod. And a release. In winter I often use a graduating filter with a touch of blue tint to the top 50%, and it looks awesome. Couple this with a polarisor and there's nothing you can't capture IMO. Polarising filters are the most under rated thing in photography... It doesn't matter about what your camera settings are, it's about the light that comes through the lens. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
