Still Life with Candle by Weezilou

Still Life with Candle

My second attempt at 3 Shutter speeds was set up indoors with natural light, though most was coming in from behind the set-up. **It's my understanding that all photos should be SOOC...is that correct?**
While I found the outdoor photos at a greater distance gave the opposite result, this at the slowest setting produced the best numbers for f-stop and ISO and the clearest photo.

The duck in my morning photo was coming in for a landing at 5:40, after the sun had gone down. He comes at almost exactly the same time each evening , so I was waiting. The speed setting on 1/8 could let in enough light, but the photo of him in flight was quite blurred (though the surrounding yard looked quite nice.) Shutter speed aside, what might have been my best choice under those conditions? (I might have just used "auto" if I wasn't trying out the project.
