Description


Last weekend Leena and I went out photographing using wide angle lenses - It was getting late and we were losing the light fast so I cranked up the ISO and and opened up the lens + 2/3 stops to get this image just before we headed back home.

Sigma 10-20 at 10mm. ISO 800, Late-Afternoon, 1/100 @ f14.0, EC +2/3 (Adjustments with PSCS5, NIK HDR Pro and Topaz Adjust) CA

Exif: F Number: 14, Exposure Bias Value: 0.67, ExposureTime: 1/100 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 10.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 50D
