Old shot, but this was the story that time. Monsoon was overdue.
This was on my way back from Mahabaleshwar to Wai.
Last few landscape shots and I learned a few things that hard way(more than 95% usless photos):
1. The Canon 18-55 (non IS) kit lens is poor. Just avoid it. I have heard good things about the IS version though.
2. Try for Manual exposure. Chances of success are much higher than relying on Aperture priority+metering mode
3. Dont trust LCD on the back of camera for photo, always keep Histogram on.
4. 18 mm is not at all sufficient.
I dont think I am going to visit such good landscapes for a while now, so I guess, best thing would be to prepare for the next time.
