james,

check out Pbase website. It'll show what settings (aperature, shutter speed) people use in certain picture scenarios/scenes.

I'm just gettin into photography and having alot of fun. I'm on a steep learning curve right now. I only shoot in manual mode and just starting to understand the concept of light. I've been given the opportuninty to shadow/assist a friend of mine with his professional studio. No time :(

Playing with CS3 is overwhelming and so is lightroom.  I'll understand it one of these days.

Don't have any VW photoshops, but I have a nice barn! This is now an 18x24 print on our wall.

All the work was done on the right side of the photo.

It is a bit pricy, but it's amazing what you can do with it. I'm glad I didn't settle for something less for my business. :wub:
