well its very sunny and hot out here right now. I want to take some nice pics of my wife and a grain elevator(which i want to do at sunset) this elevator is coming down. Im wondering here what kind of manual settings i can use and should use for this type of lighting. I want good dof shots of my wife and obviously the elevator to get the whole shot in and some blurred out backgorunds (little dof) of my wife for some glamour shots. Can you guys give me some tips and what i should be setting my camera at for these shots?thanks. i have a small compact a510 digital with a wide angle lens and a tel lens.
