These two photo's are solid examples of how to properly use light meters to perfectly capture and expose the light. IN the photo on the right Zuckerman used his meter on Incident mode making the black points dark and the background exposed as much as the kid is.










In this photo of the glacier Zuckerman says he used Reflected mode on his meter making the photo come out brighter than it really is 'fooling' you to think the glacier is bright.
