im quite new to photography and wanted to know what is the best way to shoot in extremely bright environments?
All of my pictures have extremely washed out looks, not primarily because of the exposure but because the sun is almost bleaching? The sunlight is extremely white both in the camera and in person. Its not the white balance as once i take pictures primarily in the shade/out of direct sunlight, they're great.
When it comes to these scenarios and trying to take pictures, is it just best to not even try? With great contrasts - extremely bright sunlight and shadows/dark in the same pic - just dont bother?
My XT-2 auto-exposures too much or too little, manual adjustments are needed but it seems to still look washed out even after editing raws. Would there be equipment to mitigate like my example picture or is just skill and composing a photo to eliminate situations like that?
