The vision I wanted to portray: the SkyTrain streaking across the SkyBridge. I thought that was best portrayed at dusk so the train is rendered as a streak of light on the deck of the bridge heading to the other side of the river.
The vision spoiler: The banding is not seen in the either the RAW or JPEG files. However, I notice that every time I touch the highlights to correct the exposure, banding in the blue sky develops
.
Am doing a bit of research trying to isolate the cause. Please help. (1) Could it be my use of Elements 8, which was released when dinosaurs roamed the face of the earth? (2) Could it be my monitor and perhaps you are not seeing it in yours? Am using Dell UltraSharp U2410. (3) Could it be the camera I used (K20D)? I think I have not seen this problem with my K5 when used under low light condition and long exposures.
I would love to hear from you as I want to save this series of pictures.
