I suspect you could probably have used the OM-4's "shadow" button to
get the exposure right.  Otherwise just a single spot reading on the
green grass.

It's a hard subject to meter.  An incident light meter would be nice.
But if I have an OM-4 in my hands I always think "I don't need no
stinking incident light meter."

But I like the photo.  The flowers don't look blown out so much as in motion.
