Metering

Metering is when the camera thinks that it knows the grey scale and the grey colors. Well The Top picture is way darker than the bottom picture because when I took the top picture I held down the shutter button half way in front of the screen really close and then took the picture. And in the second picture I held down the shutter button on George's cheek and then took the picture. Holding down the shutter button half way tells the camera that ....that color is mid grey.. Spot metering will help me in the future because I will be able to pop out the color's that I would like to in the future.
