This month I am going to play with my Nikon 7200 - hopefully I will learn something about the camera along the way - I have a busy work couple of weeks so playing may be done in chunks.
I am having a go at longer exposures - this isn't that long - I am having trouble with light blowout - played around with our wind spinners trying to capture the movement.
For b&w-18 Challenge - play with longer/long exposures.
Nice capture of motion. For longer exposures in situations with a lot of light, I use one or both of these options: aperture priority with the smallest aperture and the lowest ISO setting. The same settings as just mentioned, along with a (variable) neutral density filter.
