I needed to use fast exposure time because a lot of tourist and child around so 2000 is not my favorite speed but needed,I use sharp 2.5 aperture because I wanted to be readable all the graffiti in the old cannon. So under all handicap circumstances, not bad at all. :lol:

Background:
It was a very touristy place if it took a few more seconds, the kids would have come up to touch the cannon with their hands, and people stick there for a long time looking and talking. In fact, it happened like this. :lol:
It was December, there wasn't a very aggressive and super luminous sun.
In fact, I remember that it was cold and a little windy from time to time. :P
One of those rare days when clouds often come out from time to time and suddenly the lighting goes down.
I kept the ISO and went from f4 to f2.5 and increased the speed to 2000 to compensate, I wanted a light photo not a dark one so that all the gun graffiti that was important to me was visible, I was afraid that the darker old ones and less sharp ones would be difficult to read.
If you zoom the photo, all the graffiti are possible to read easy, including the older ones.
And you have the feeling that is summer :blush:
