This image was made on a trip to the Bahamas. The vibrant blue skies and bright Caribbean colors contrast wonderfully throughout the country. This was one of those instances. The rich terracotta color of the hotel against that deep rich sky blue together with the repeat of the shapes made for an interesting and exciting composition. Camera specs; Canon 20D fitted with 17-85mm lens at 72mm, F20 @ 1/800 second, ISO 800. Enjoy! -David
lovely photograph...but I am curious as to why you choose ISO 800...for myself I would of choosen the lowest posible ISO the camera could offer...unless of course it wasn't as sunny and bright as it seems...love your blog, thanks for your it all.

I'd second Denis's question: it seems that 1/100 second would be fast enough to stop any motion in the trees from the wind, and allow you to shoot at ISO 100 for the best quality from the camera.
ReplyDeleteDitto!
ReplyDeleteFirst thing I said to myself... Why ISO 800?
It's a beautiful pic, but I have to wonder if it would be that much better in lower ISO range.
well, iso low or high, it definitely sets a nice mood.
ReplyDeleteHi Everybody,
ReplyDeleteWhen just cruising around on a day off, my camera is typically on 800 for the interior shots and 400 for exterior shots. I'm presuming I stepped outside, saw the shot, and just took it without thinking to reset the ISO. In all honesty, 800ISO works just fine outdoors too. I purposely use lower ISO's when I want to use wider apertures necesitating the lower ISO.

Did you shoot this in raw or jpeg? Not to open that can of worms, but when I am 'wandering' I have my camera set to jpeg only.

David,
ReplyDeleteI am curious why you typically shoot outdoor shots at ISO 400. Are you concerned about slower shutter speeds at the lower ISO's?
Thanks!
