If I framed the shot as mostly tree filled, then I could meter the scene at anywhere from 1\/2 a second to 2 seconds.\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"photo\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/pictures.hamzy.info\/blog-photo-IMG_3613.jpg\" alt=\"Trees in the wind #2\"><\/img>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nDo these trees seem in motion?

Since the last picture contained sky, I had to use an EV +2.0 to get the tree metered correctly.  It also makes me realize the need for even lower ISO values.  My next camera will have an ISO of 50.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spring time around here has some of the most severe weather: tornadoes, hail, and high winds.
