A beautiful day in the 1000 Islands deserves to be a travel poster displayed in every Travel Agency in the world…well, at least, on their websites.
On such a sunny day, I pulled out the old Sunny 16 Rule.
I’d never heard of the Sunny 16 rule before so I clicked your link to read about it. I’m curious, what exactly does this rule accomplish? I can see that your photos are nicely lit, but what is the benefit of this rule is what I am asking, I think 🙂

Easy way to determine the exposure triangle of Shutter Speed, Aperture and ISO. Is it the look you may want? Maybe not. It is a good and easy starting point to remember. I use it a lot when I want to get “I was there” type of photos.

Awesome rule Scott. Never heard of it before. As you say, it’s a great starting point. And since I bracket (downward) for over exposure, I’m sure to get just the digital negative that’s perfect for touch up! Thanks again!
