Matrix method - f/16 at 1/6sec
The matrix method has done slightly better than the spot method but has still lost too much highlight detail - especially in the sky. I think the camera has tried to salvage detail in the dark areas of the scene at the expense of the highlights. To get an accurate exposure using this method I could have either dialed in a stop of under exposure or repositioned the camera to take a meter reading with more light areas and then recompose before shooting.
