bad exposure recovery and RAW

shooting RAW and processing it in Lightroom can save your pictures even if you have "badly" exposed photos. i can't stress it enough to shoot in RAW. i know you should get it right "the moment it clicks" but in such situations retrieving information from a jpeg will surely be impossible. of course it helps if you shoot with a fast prime.

here are the jpegs (i shoot RAW + JPEG FINE btw).

ramadan kareem

dimly lit restaurant UNO chicago grill at deira city centre is where these lamps hang. good thing i was shooting RAW. there is so much detail you can recover just by shooting RAW.

an exemption.

Thanks Rod for the dinner.

sharjah aquarium

I have this idea in my head prior to shooting the venue. I've been there before but I did not own a DSLR then.

I wanted to shoot some images of the sun setting low in the horizon. Although it did not turn out like what I have planned(the western sky was hazy), I made some images nonetheless.

I'll be coming back and explore more of the place. You can check their website HERE and find their location thru this map.
