JoeDios.com Forums - View Single Post - The concept of Aperture & Shutter Speed

I've been using both the wisdom that Frank and Luke have given. I think it's working but it's been hard. I'm learning how to use aperture AND shutter speed to get those nite/dark shots better. Check out the Sigma6 Flamer Duty that I posted. I used the lamps (ala Frank) and then slowed the shutter speed and opened the aperture to play with how much light is let in. It's something I need to really work on and practice.

And as most of us know, you usually can't get the best shot in 1 try. That Flamer Duty shot took about 15 tries w/ different settings. In the end, Shane and I decided that was the best one!
