> [@boardjnky4](#): > > yeah I usually do use aperature priority mode. Helps me focus more on the shot and less on camera settings, but it always seems that when its really bright out, its hard for AP to get the right shot. OK, here is a good one that I had trouble with: > > Beautiful spring day, not a cloud in the sky, and I see a helicopter start to approach in the sky. I set the aperature so that the shutter speed would be on the slower side. But still when I took the photo, I saw a stand still of the blades on the helicopter, no motion. In that case, when theres a ton of light, and you still want to capture some motion, what do you do? > > edit: later on I am going to post some beginner pics taken with a Nikon D80 so I can get some opinions here, including ^^^^ I think it would be easier to do on Shutter Pri. I’d set it to 60 or so and see what you get. If it’s too bright out, there is nothing you can really do about that other than getting an ND filter. ---

If it’s too bright out, there is nothing you can really do about that other than getting an ND filter. yeah it almost seemed like I was “shit out of luck”. Would dialing down the ISO have helped? maybe I should have checked that. When I get home I am going to resize them and post them for you guys to see. ---

We were only about 30 yards away and they werent scared off for any reason. there is about 100-200 wild horses on that island. The parks manage the population when they start to reproduce too much. They give them horse birth control. Really cool, though it took us about 2 hours to find them. ---

Here is a crappy cell phone picture from yesterday. It really doesn’t capture the scene, there was a storm that darkened part of the sky and the sun was the dividing line. It was actually snowing pretty good but the picture doesn’t show it. The lights on the toward the left side are from Kissing Bridge. ---
