[QUOTE="Rick, post: 237343, member: 18828"] Okay, please keep in mind total newbie here.... So just for fun I brought my D3100 out to the sidewalk in front of my house this evening to try some long exposure pics of my Christmas lights. Yes, I had it on a tripod. So I was in shutter priority mode and thought I'd just experiment with some shutter speeds, 5, 10, 15, 30 secs, because again, I have no clue. I go no further because the camera says "subject too dark". Won't let me take a pic. What am I obviously doing wrong? [/QUOTE]
