I had way. too. much. trouble. shooting this cow. It was in the theatre, where it is dark, and black, and this cow is WHITE. It was infuriating. There was nothing for me to bounce the light off of, so it had to be straight on it.  After a lot of adjusting, I finally came up with the settings I used, which at least exposed the cow properly. A room movement from the theatre to the prop shop provided the second photo; this is the best I could get. I learned how to manage in a black hole of doom and darkness.

I was able to use the same settings in a different room just as successfully, but slightly brighter.

The cow got shot, at least. Which is kinda what I wanted to do to the person who gave me this assignment, because IT WAS SO FRUSTRATING.
