Interesting.
A month ago, I would have said my dramatic sky / darkened land photo was an example of how to not "get it right in camera" because I really needed a tripod for multiple EVs.
Now, I recognize that even without a tripod, I could easily have taken a burst of shots and multiple exposures could have been used for better NR in the darkened area.
I find it difficult to recognize opportunities to improve the less-interesting parts of the scene, while I'm in the process of photographing what's interesting to me ;-)
