ok. thanks.

Here another question. If i want to do a ghost image. Shouldnt i use the light meter to find the right settings. For example F8 at 1/60 of a second. So to make a ghost image shouldnt i just set it to shoot two pics on teh same frame but on the second shot move the object out of the fram and have the camera set at F8 1/30 of a second each? Cuase i tried something like that but it did not work. The pic was overexposed.

you could also consider setting the cammera to "bold mode" (film) and leaving it there for a LONG time in total darkness, you have your first object (ghost) in there, then you turn a flash on it for a fraction of a second, then, you move in the other object and photograph it for the recomended time (on flash...) and then develop, this method should result in what you are after

Hey to get a clear crisp pic like this one in daytime how big of a apautre open will i need? Would a f 4 to 5.6 lens work? Or would that be to slow to capture something like this on my local track. Cause i really wnat to stop the motion and even get indviual grains of sand. Just like in this pic. Also i think my lens budget will be about 300 on most likely a nikon d40. So if you have any recomendations let me know.

For the record this is one of Tigger N. Bennie photos that i really liked and kept on my computer.

slurp, you're picture of the Epcot sign inspired me to post this one. I took like 40 images of that thing from across the lake as the sun went down, and just one came out cool.
