A few weeks back I returned from a vacation to Bali.

I must admit that, in terms of photography, it was pretty uninspiring. The light contrasts were basically always extreme - I mostly took photos just for the sake of it. And during post-processing, I had to apply a substantial amount of highlight/shadow correction.

Any suggestions on how to do better the next time in the tropics (other than not catching gastro, which put me down for a week)? Extreme contrasts are probably unavoidable in these regions.
