hi guys before I pull out what left of my hair I need Some advice, was fishing today in peaceful quiet surroundins I had my tripod etc and decided to take a photo of the lake using a very slow shutter speed to just see the effect etc... needless to say nothing came out everything was almost white is this going to be possible with a kit lens 18-55 I had set camera on tripod and selected shutter speed use a slow shutter speed and all it was saying was subject too bright no matter what shutter speed i was setting from 30 to 1 second and it would still not have it. so tried aperture priority still no joy so tried manual mode still no joy and this was middle of the day, so just imagine how gutted I would be if there was a waterfall there and I wanted to get that silky smooth effect, WHAT AM I DOING WRONG....
