Italy Mediterranean 04 Savona bench 3360.jpg


Italy, Mediterranean Coast.
I wanted to capture a local scene, late at night. I figure I can handhold a wide angle lens at about 1/30 of a second and still freeze the action.
An old rule of thumb. A 50mm lens can be handheld at 1/50 of a second and a 300mm lens can be held at 1/300 of a second shutter speed and yield a sharp image. Be sure you concentrate and relax, when clicking the shutter.
