Yacht Club - Hamilton Island
The Yacht Club looks spectacular at night. This image was taken at 17mm f8 for 30 seconds.
17mm is a nice wide angle to capture the building in its environment. It also gives a larger depth of field.
F8 gives a decent depth of field given the wide angle lens. Ideally I would have shot this around f10 however that would have required a longer shutter speed.
30sec is the max shutter speed you can use on camera without using a cable release or connecting to my phone. I have no idea why they limit it to this, seems like it would be simple to allow you to extend into the minutes. If I had of remembered/been bothered to get out my cable release I would have shot this at ISO100 instead of 640 and at f10.
Well there you go, a slightly lazy shot is better than non at all right? Hope you liked the shot and enjoyed the read.
