and i was at the very end of a parking lot and there was only a couple light poles over there but werent even close to me. i was surprised how it turned out

apeture:f/1.8

Shutter:1.3s

iso:100

other than that i dont think i changed anything else.

hmm i think im limited to 4... will that make a huge difference? T3i with 18-55mm

how do i know what the shutter speed is? not sure how to set timings..

iso 100 is easy

any tips?

More so settings. I had a general idea, but didn't have a lot of attempts to play with them, but the pictures turned out pretty decent so I'm happy with them.

I mess with the lighting but not the sharpness. CS5 does a terrible job in my opinion on sharpening photos.

Edit to much? All I'm doing is adjusting the lighting to get that HDR feel.

Yea, 18-55 nice, boost the colors?

It's so much easier to edit photo's when you shoot RAW by the way.

look into the 35mm 1.8 dx, its really nice and cheap.

yeah i really dont edit my pics much, and i never use photoshop so i dont really see a point to shoot raw.
