Thanks Susan and Dave. Yeah, I can see where using this would be useful in a few cases. I want to try it out in some desert landscapes, buttes, rock formations, etc..

Here's an untouched image to show what I had to work with. I was amazed I could get anything out of this photo, let alone actually showing cloud formations and the desert landscape.

I went shooting last week with my Dad and brother in law. As usual my camera was along. My dad picked the camera up and took a few photos, but there was a problem.

The previous night I was doing some astrophotography so my camera was set up with a high ISO (4000) and was set to Aperture priority. So the camera shot at 1/4000 sec. at 4000 ISO and F5.6. Of course, EVERYTHING was blown out. I could barely see an image, mosly just bright white frames.

I decided to see what I could do with them anyway. I pulled the exposure as low as I could go and then pulled the highlights all the way down.

After doing this, I kind of like what I got out of them. They definitely aren't anywhere close to being correct, but I think I might like to use this effect in some different shooting situations.

It turned out to be a happy mistake. I need to keep this in mind for some different shoots and see what I can come up with.

Here's a photo my Dad took of me getting ready to shoot my 300 Black Out.
