Break the rules by removing detail in the shadows, creating vibrant frames and eye-catching silhouettes

Insert
Auto exposed
The exposure meter of the camera indicates an exposure which is neither beneficial for the foreground subject nor the backdrop sky, resulting in alack of depth and colour
AFTER
Main
Powerful sky
By underexposing the scene by two stops and metering for the sky, the houses and the tree become silhouettes with black pixels, creating contrast in front of the enhanced and detailed vibrant sky
