Estimating Exposure Outdoors Without a Light Meter
Again, the horse's shadow is barely visible, shot at 7000 feet in Wyoming. Add two stops:
EXIF ->
f11
ISO 400
1/200th
Sunny 16 ->
f11
ISO 400
1/200th
Again, it seems to work.
I hope I have demonstrated that the Sunny 16 rule is easy to understand and can be very helpful in understanding exposures needed and in interpreting your camera's exposures properly.
