As jimmy was saying I shoot a lot of the time in a similar manner, 90% of my stuff would be aperture priority. I would occasionally use shutter if i was doing panning or sometimes i would use manual if I was afraid of the exposure not being evaluated correctly.
Some places you just have to use manual or the camera will get tricked by dark/light area's it seems CML is one of those places. The shots are pretty good and do deffinately show some promice
