A friend of mine is going to Spain next week and asked for advice about taking pictures of the scenery there. Instead of technical tips about camera settings like aperture and shutter speed, I encouraged him to avoid taking pictures in the middle of the day, to get up early and shoot at dawn, or in the late afternoon or evening. The light at the beginning and end of the day is almost always best for pictures, whether you're photographing a castle, or your wife. Or both. This photo of the Wisconsin River was taken in August before sunrise. Shutter: 1/100; Aperture: f/4.5; ISO: 200; Focal length: 18 mm.
