Thanks for that pointer. I agree with most of their comments, with the
possible exception of:


http://www.juzaphoto.com/shared_file...gram/exp-2.jpg

which I would not describe as "a completely overexposed photo" -
depending on what was in the sky area.

English is a second language for the author of that page, so it's possible
that the words come out subtly different to what he intended.

Just looking at most of these pictures is enough to tell the experienced
photographer whether or not they are correctly exposed - there's no
need to view the histogram to confirm what your eyes tell you.

Yeah - if you can view them under good conditions.
