Description


Finalist CA April 2009.

A scene from the Rhine river in Basel, Switzerland. This is a traditional type of boat which is often seen on the river (at rest, like here, or en route). I liked how the boats were arranged in an z-shape here and took the picture from the bridge nearby ("Wettsteinerbrucke").

Canon 70-200 f/4 L IS lense, circular polarizer, handheld.
Converted to monotone and made basic adjustments in CS3 using Nik Silver Efex.

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.33, ExposureTime: 1/320 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, FocalLength: 70.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 30D
