Saturday fun.....

Saturday fun.....

..... or Dipper dipping
..... or Made a mess of that one

One from the evening at Jedburgh and I really don't understand how this happened.

OK the camera was on Aperture Priority

Settings:

F stop - 8
Exp time - 1/14 sec
ISO - 800
Exposure bias - 0
Focal length - 185 mm

The light was pretty good, and I don't understand why the speed was so slow. Another picture of a dipper taken around the same time had a speed of 1/25 sec.

Think I need some lessons!!;)

still knew what it was and i am not an expert as i have just started using aperture priority but i keep my f stop nearer 5 for close-up moving objects and even in low light those whites will cause blur so i find using my exposure helps alot.hope this helps but i still just play around and hope for the best.many tfs.take care delia.all the best margaret.
