By channel, you mean that blue spike in the middle of the graph? I assume it is in the blue channel, and I wonder where there is a overexposed blue spot in the picture. Or does it mean that the camera cannot handle the huge range of blues in the picture and is clipping them somewhere? There is a lot of blue in this picture, and from very dark to light- such as part of the creek all the way to the light sky. HDR is becoming my go to method for properly exposing landscape scenes, because I don’t have to chose between loosing my sky or the landscape. But that day, I didn’t have my tripod; I just set the camera on the rail of the bridge, kind of pinned it with one hand and used touchscreen controls to adjust my shutter speed. I wish I had slowed the shutter enough to blur the water, but without a tripod, it was hard to avoid blur everywhere from shaking đ
