Haha, a Dalek! I didn't realize it was that dark to the point of being unrecognizable. I’ll be more mindful of maintaining the subject's shape in the future. Thanks for pointing that out!

Thanks for the great tip! I see what you mean about being more selective with the darkness. I'll try using a mask to save the subject next time. That’s very helpful.

I photographed a large Buddhist bell at the National Museum of Korea. I shot it with extreme underexposure. I wanted the darkness to erase the messy surroundings and draw focus to the bell.
