Braubach & Marksburg Castle

Uploaded: December 30, 2010

Description

Traveling down the Rhine at a fast pace on cruise ship provided the great Travel & Place opportunity but I had to push the ISO up to a high 12,800 to shoot at 1/5000 sec at F/13 in AP mode handheld at 50mm focal length to get the capture. I liked the results even at that ISO. Comment welcome.

Exif: F Number: 13, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/5000 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 12800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 50.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV
