Budapest Chain Bridge

Uploaded: October 23, 2010

Description

This is a view of the Budapest Chain bridge that is rarely taken. Shot through the front window of a moving tour bus as we were traveling from Buda to Pest via the tunnel. It framed the Budapest Chain bridge and Pest behind it nicely. ISO 1250, F/13 in AV mode to get the DOF, 1/400 sec to stop the action and 105 focal length in JPEG (I was running out of memory) processed in Aperture 3. Placed in Elements of Design.

Exif: F Number: 13, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/400 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1250, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 105.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV

what a wonderful presence of mind you had to grab this on the fly Emile. You would have a hard time getting this POV any better even if you had the time to set up a tripod. It's a testament to your skill that in that short span of time you were able to negotiate your technical settings so quickly and capture the moment. Super. #9513657

Sometimes we get lucky Dale but it is always best to make your luck. I knew I wanted that shot but was not sure I would get it. #9514346
