I think this is a fantastic learning tool for people Michael. sigh? See and people are paying attention. What folks should get from this (I hope) is that it is very easy for your camera's meter to be fooled by this sort of light and it's important to think about what areas in your image are crucial (exposure wise) before you push the shutter. Keeping in mind that there's personal preferences involved, IMHO the 1 & 2 stops over exposure images seems to be the best in contrast and detail. Shadows seem good and hightlights are not terribly blown out or suffering from too much detail loss. Of course these images are horribly small and my monitor always seems to be darker than others so keeping that in mind, I would need to actually see prints to make a good assesment. Thanks so much for doing this! Great learning tool!

I am, therefore I create.......
