I will encourage you and say that eventually manual on the fly becomes easier. Of course, sometimes there is still not enough time to adjust but that mainly trips me with kids on the move. I'm proud of you moving to manual!Kim Cunningham https://www.blogger.com/profile/15228475634696692073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385056842641555305.post-39973744062668879992015-03-02T17:25:05.850-05:002015-03-02T17:25:05.850-05:00Great message! and of course Ellen will always mak...Great message! and of course Ellen will always make you laugh and think!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08585068938882679551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385056842641555305.post-40595493098583207252015-03-02T12:25:15.853-05:002015-03-02T12:25:15.853-05:00Stillness is a practice… your photos show how dedi...Stillness is a practice… your photos show how dedicated you are to engaging with your subjects with this quality.

I shoot manual 99.9% of the time even on the football field at night and when you start doing it all the time it really will become second nature. I just can't ever get the look I want with aperture, maybe I'm just a rebel? I'm in Kim's other BeStill class on week 30 something and I read the weekly emails and have done some of them, but like you I struggle with still life sometimes. It has to be personal for me....but just last week I did find some pretty awesome spoons at an antique store for just $1 each, score! Now, will I actually use them in a shot....only the shadow knows! lol Looks to me that you did find some great light, these are wonderful Kathy!

I have been shooting M on the fly, but it is hard and does not always give me the results I want. I find myself saying, "I'll fix it in LR." It is especially difficult when I am in a setting with a lot of people around. It's all a work in progress.

I too rarely stray from the aperture and shutter priority safety zones when I don't have the time to muck about for at least five minutes with the manual settings. I will have to have a go at some 50mm still lifes myself. I have only really ever used it for taking portraits. Very under utilised, the poor thing.SeaThreePeeOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11639732349402996973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385056842641555305.post-88943590243624784302015-03-02T05:15:38.198-05:002015-03-02T05:15:38.198-05:00Your photos are beautiful my friend.
