Hi all,

Whenever I see a richly coloured sky or sunset, I reach straight for my camera. However, I often find the images I take to be diappointing, as they don't reflect the vivid range of colours that I saw.

Do any of you have any tips on how I should take such a shot, and where in the image I should look to meter the shot so as I pick up as many colours in the sky as possible without it being blown out or too dark?

I'm using a Canon 400D (Xti).


Many thanks.
