Yesterday's wildlife class was on exposure; there were 17 students
eager to learn the ins and outs of it and get to produce details in all
the tonal range simultaneously… as much as the sensor permits. A
well extended DR is an advantage as provided in the D850 used here.

The main tool at one's disposal is the histogram where deep blacks
and bright whites can be correctly controlled for capture in one re-
cording and later rendered in PP.

This shot from that session illustrates the end result of the approach.
