Thanks Scott & Greg. The shots were on print film, so how could you dodge
the background if you send the film to be developed and printed at your
local Mini-Lab?? Can they do this for you or is it only if you have your own
dark room??
Thanks again , Adam

Expose for the geese and dodge the background.

I have found the list to be very helpful in answering my queries, so I ask
again for your help. The other day I was shooting a group of geese with my
OM-10. Although I was happy with the following poses I captured the geese
in, I was unhappy about the exposure. I have found that the background is
too dark. If I had of allowed for an extra stop in compensation to lighten
the background I think I would have lost any contrast in the geese and lost
more detail in their plumage from over exposure. I was using Extrafilm 200
(Basically Agfa HDC I believe) with a 200mm lens at 1/250 sec at f5.6. Any
ideas on how to compensate for this (filters, bracketing etc).Here are the
links to the shots in question

For those interested, my OLY has been busy lately, so I have posted some new
photos to my photo site

Thanks in advance and I hope you enjoy my site
Cheers Adam
