You’re welcome! Glad you liked it.

aha they show up now! might have been a delay. Yes watch out for auto ISO in low light it will always pick high for you when you may not need it.

thank you so much, I’m thinking I probably had the ISO on auto and it was sunrise, lol. Wondering why you can’t see the images…. must be Photo’s on the mac 🙁

Hi Rae – I can’t see your images but you’re on the right track based on your settings. If you want to use a lower ISO just open up your aperture a bit to f.5/6 or f/4 if you have that on your lens. That will allow you to lower the ISO in equal amounts and shoot at 400 or so instead of 1600.

Hi Dennis – night photography is great fun. I suggest getting a tripod and give some a try. You’ll find many good articles on it here on dPS just search for “night photography”. Also if you want other practice, go out on weekends.

Hi Dennis
Why particular do you want to do indoor night time photography when there is orher areas of photography like landcape, nature, wildlife, architecture, food, still life, macro, light painting, portrait, fine art unless you go outside there very little practice you can do indoors at night you have to go out and about and practice using your camera seeing what you camera can do learning all about the exposure Triangle and how to use it go on the web learn all about shutter speed aperture, depth of feild don’t limit yourself to indoor nighttime as you would need lighting flash at nighttime look on 500px at other peoples work and get inspirred.

i don’t have currently and fascination on any subject but i just want to get full practical experience on photography. Kindly help and inform me how to start with during night time only and that to indoor photography.

Hi Dennis
So according to what your saying is that you work 7 days a week with no weekends off. What type of indoor photography are you interested in.

Dear Peter,
Since I do a job, I would like to practice and learn all about my camera. I would request you to kindly guide me how to make best use of my camera during night time (indoor), so that I get full practical experience in photography. The only problem with me is that I will have to practice during night time and that too indoor photography. Kindly help and guide me please.

Dear Darlene,
I have already confirmed you that I do a job and only have time during night, kindly inform how can I make best use of my camera during night (indoor). Kindly help and guide me please. I am a beginner in photography and would like to learn and get practical experience with my camera. Kindly help.

Thanks Darlene for your beautiful articles on food photography.

Many thanks Peter for your guidance.

Hi Dennis I don’t have any food articles on this site right now sorry. Just this one:

Hi Dennis
you said you work but do your work weekends if not use this time to practice with your camera as your a beginner it would be best just getting used to your camera and the different settings use the manual that came with your camera to learn what the settings do and what you can use them for and go out into the garden and practice with the different settings on your camera and do some research on the internet and learn all you can on how your camera works once you have got used to your camera and done some practice shots photography is all about learning that is the way i learn i watch a lot of videos read lot of books and you will find lot of information on the internet hope this helps.

Hi Bec – yes. Likely what is happening is you have your shutter speed set too low, or your ISO too high (or a combination of both) and the camera has to pick an aperture to make a correct exposure. But if the shutter speed is set slow it will go to the smallest aperture and can’t do anything else if that isn’t cutting out enough light. You have to watch in the viewfinder when using A or S to see if one of the settings is flashing. If you’re using S and see the aperture flashing it means it’s at the limit and can’t go any farther and you will get a bad exposure.

I rarely use shutter priority unless I’m trying to pan – is that what you were doing? If the sun is bright you need the lowest ISO also and still you may have trouble panning at say 1/30th because it is simply too bright and your camera likely doesn’t have an aperture small enough to make a proper exposure.

Tell me your exact settings? ISO, shutter speed and aperture on the ones that were too white?

I always read your various articles. I am a working person and usually get time for photography at night when I come back from my work. I am a begginer in photography and recently procured canon 1200D camera. Since I don’t get opportunity to go out during day time, I would like to go for indoor photography. I would like to go for indoor food photography. Can you please provide me some of your articles on this please?

Dennis
