Some times I under expose the shots and then balance it out in Photoshop to help with the dynamic range limitations. But in reading about the D200 the dark areas are more noisy then my d70 and that might create problems in lighting those areas up in post processing.
Well there is always the ND filter... which you can then lasso the darker top areas feather and then lighten with Levels and get a pretty balanced shot...at least you have all the information on the original shot opposed to just having a blown out area where there isn't to much you can do afterwards.

Noise in the shadows is a D200 limitation, although the NR in Silkypix (working on RAW files) is VERY impressive and rescued some images I thought were beyond help. I also keep running into the D200's dynamic range limitations. I am certain now that the D80 would have been a better choice as well as much easier on my pocket. I don't know about noise, but there is a dynamic range compression function built in and it really brings up the shadow areas. Read about that function and, if possible, see some typical results. I just hope they offer a firmware upgrade! The other choice is a Fuji S3 or (perhaps) the new S5. The latter is still only a 6 + 6Mp sensor, though. Working with RAW images also gives you another stop or two in reserve...

I must get myself out to do some candids my dear Roger because this (and others like it from you) proves that I do not need a long telephoto lens to get a result. By using your wide angle you can appear to be taking in the view whilst including some unsuspecting models for your candid study. The depth to this composition is superb my friend and I love the bland expressions of your two subjects caught up in their own worlds as you neatly scoop them into yours. Well done to you, I love this and the other two shots. My very best wishes to you as always.....Ray:)
