Silhouttes
I am trying to get a silhoutte of my son at the beach. This was my first attempt. I had a hard time focusing my camera while shooting towards the sun. I am also not sure what aperture I should use. On this one I used 2.8. And I focused on my son. If I try to focus on the sky my camera will not focus! Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks,

Why not manual focus?

You'd actually get better results with a smaller aperture than f-2.8 since more of the scene would be in apparent focus. Once your aperture is set, select a shutter speed to expose that bright sky in the background normally and your subject will silhouette.
