my experimentation with aperture
wow. i finally figured this **** out.
k in the first two pics, and keep in mind are at 7:30 pm, almost completely dark, i had the aperture at like F4.8 (my camera can do F2.6 but i was zoomed, and it only does F4.8 when zoomed) and the exposure was around 4 seconds. the second two pics were with F4.8 again, but the exposure was at 8 seconds. i was amazed when i saw these pics. it was so dark, yet it looks like 2 PM!
then the last pic was proof, that now with the exposure setting discovered, i BADLY need a tripod. lol. the other pics had that problem too, but i had the camera on a curb or block wall for those so the only shake is cuz my camera is weird shaped on the bottom, and after pushing the button, it shook a bit.

You should stop experimenting with speed so you're not vibrating so much when you take the pictures. Sorry, I had to.
Sunset Hills Dr., eh? That sounds so typically Californian.

I just hacked my Xti to work like a D20 and have 2100 ISO a couple weeks ago

I think i'd understand the gist of it. But I am by no means a computer genius.
