use the exposure you would use on a bright, sunny day (1 over the ISO at f16) as a start point.

If your maximum aperture is f8, then you need to adjust the exposure by two stops.

Say you use ISO 100, then at f16 the shutter speed would be 1/100, adjust by two stops to 1/400. This will be better as it will save you some camera shake!

glsammy, your picture looks a little underexposed.
