Hi
Looking for advice on getting better exposure with my 40D.
I normally shoot in Aperture priority mode, with Auto WB on, and rely on the camera to set the exposure time, sometimes changing ISO if I think I need a faster/slower speed with the DOF i want.
However, when I do PP, I find that when experimenting, the shots are often incorrectly exposed.
I do not have a lightmetre, so I am looking for some good principles to apply in the field to try and take my images up a notch. What should be looking for in the histogram? (not averse to a bit of chimping...)
Here are a few previous images.

They were all PP in lightroom, so probably not much help, but might give a pointer?
I am off on an 8 day road trip round the lower South Island tomorrow, so thanks in advance for any replies.
