ABSTRACT
Speaking of Photoshop and Lightroom, like virtually all of the author's professional photographer friends, the author use these tools to enhance the author's best exposures by creating the image the author envisioned in the author's mind's eye when the author took the shot, or to experiment with new techniques to craft even more creative images. Several factors affect a "good" in-camera exposure. For now, the author put the word "good" in quotes because in photography, as in all art forms, "good" is subjective. The most important settings—aperture, shutter speed and ISO—are shown in the red box. Those settings comprise what is called the "Exposure Triangle." Each photograph tells a different story. Both were taken in the AV mode with no exposure compensation, which was not needed due to the low contrast range in both scenes. Both were taken at the Dhowa Rock Temple.
