Hi Oksana , Thank you for your answer i am have opinion what if i am use flash strong light when i am shoot on middle of the day (sunny) is that will have to reduce the light shadow on that picture .What you recognise ?i am waiting your prompt reply ,Thank you 

Yes, flash could help to fill up the shadows. I have a video about using flash - Lesson 26. You could also use reflector (but you might not have it handy all the time and you need an assistant or stand to hold it). You could also make subject to face the sun, but in this case you might not get desired background and also people tend to squint their eye, which is not attractive in most cases. It doesn't matter so if you have sun glasses on. 

I personally usually tend to avoid having photo shoots during midday (with clients I mean). And if I have no choice I look for a shade with more even light. I also prefer to shoot backlit using reflector to kick the light back on the persons face. Post-processing also helps. If you should raw, you can darken the highlights and brighten up the shadows. 

As you can see, when you shoot under direct sun light in the middle of the day, you will have a huge difference between shadows (dark parts) and highlights (light parts). This photo is exposure more for highlight - like sky, and all the part of the image which got direct sunlight on them. This is why shadows (all the things which are in the shade are very dark. If you would expose for shadows, then highlight will be too light. 

The solution to that could be post processing. You should shoot your image in Raw instead of Jpeg. This way you will have more information in highlight and shadows and it will be easier to brighten up the shadows or darken the highlight in Adobe Lightroom or Camera Raw. 

I am talking about that at the end of Lesson 14.

Ron, just tried dragging and dropping and if the pic come through it worked for me...

Michael... Yours came through fine.  I still can't use the drag and drop, but it is not critical as I can use "add files".
I've been having some trouble with Java lately.  I doubt that could be relevant, but you never know.
Thanks for the feedback.

Re above post....
Hmmmmm, you replied to my post by editing my post?
Not sure that's a good idea as it is easily missed because it does not show up as a new unread posting.
Also replying to posts in this way can confuse readers as to who added the additional comments.

I did. I must have by accident pressed Edit instead of Quote. Sorry Mandrake.

While this indicates that an image was uploaded, I see no image in your posting.
I only see the image if I click on the Attachments Label.

Don't know it this helps.
Are any others unable to upload using the "drag files here" box???                                  

This is how you upload:
- Click on "Upload Attachment" button
- Then on "Add Files" or "Drag files here" from your computer
- Then click "Start Upload"

Also what is you shutter speed, when you take your photo?
