strong sunlight - early morning

Bill this is a difficult one to give advice to because of the harsh light, image looks over saturated and almost posterized in spots.
Remember it's all about the light and correct exposure, early morning and late afternoon are the times to shoot for.

Thanks Tim

just what I needed - I felt that this image was "all wrong" although it had some kind of novel effect

the time was early morning but the sun was strong and I had to try to deal with the strong shadows and harsh highlights in post

Clearly not worked

Thanks again for taking the time to comment
