-take picture in jpeg (i shoot in raw)
-no post processing allowed
-print portable 4" x 6" (club has one)
-all within 30 minutes
-then show/explain/discuss attempted
(we meet in local conference room facillty, 30 active members.)
being cloudy-rainy, wanted capture moody picture reflect that, local lake 5 minutes drive, went there, tripod/t1i/15-85 lens.

dis-appointed @ lack of range on original shots (1a, 2a), looked in camera, sucked when printed....
@ home able use pp , make @ least decent image (1b, 2b) trying capture.
simply, relying on pp , not getting proper exposure in camera begin?
have gotten "lazy" @ exposure?
realize shooting @ near dusk overcast difficult proper exposure, , rain/mist in air added softness of shots.
i've not shoot in jpeg long possible don't know camera settings give me better "in camera" processing?
side discussion heard people @ club "nikon allows in camera pp stuff after shot taken (crop/other), while canon not". not directly involved discussion did not further pursue.
