mind to share ur settings? did u use flash? 
This are the settings : 1/50s, f32, iso200, center wt avg metering, hotshoe mounted flash. The cam & flash are all set using manual mode. I was able to use a slow shutter as the subject was quite stationary, fill-in flash in manual mode in the range of 1/2 to full power. Hope u can understand what i m trying to share here .... hehe
