I've also got another shot in mind with the Ferrari pit stop set, probably using similar settings.

Pete, I love the night shot!

What camera are you using? You'll need to put it in Apature Priority (Av on my Canon) and then dial it down to the lowest setting, the camera will do the exposure time, there is some more explaining DOF here

Cheers Matt, will have a look at that link later

I have a Powershot S70, just a compact but it does have Av mode

That'll work, the fact its a compact souldn't make much difference. I couldn't get to grips with using manual controls with my compact and it came much more naturally when I moved to a bridge camera but the technique is exacly the same. You'll fin once you move off the manual controls you will have a lot more creative options just using Av.

Well that's something for me to experiment with anyway.

However tonights shot is another 'I have had a boring day and can't think of anything to photograph'.

28th Jan - Stitch. It's blurry because he never keeps still, and was trying to eat my camera

Bless! How cute! I'm loving the stuff you're doing Vix, especially with a compact camera!

280109 : How do you eat yours?

You either love 'em or hate 'em - Can you guess which camp I fall into??

If you like to partake in the odd chocolate eggy delight - just how do you eat yours?

I am loving watching everyone's progress

Kitten, I would love to photograph how you do, you manage to take a shot with a hidden meaning, so it isn't just a photo but so much more

Vix, some of your shots and comments have made me smile

You should be pleased with your progress.

Pete, I LOVE that star picture! I am mad about stars, everytime I see a star I always comment on it. Paul must be very fed up with it

Where are your photos madam? Especially with your spangly camera

TinkerBell · 28-01-2009, 21:38

lol dammit! Been caught out!

I should really do it, but I haven't done anything really since the beginning of Jan! Plus I would be rubbish!

Excuses Excuses hey!

Kitten · 28-01-2009, 21:39

Thankyou Tink, that means SUCH a lot (you have no idea!)
