Shot this at 2pm.
1/2500
f5.6

I like this shot because of the dark mountain in the bottom corner then in the middle of the picture you see two boats going opposite directions with a trail of water. The white contrast with the blue is what made me really enjoy the aesthetics of it.


CCD & CMOS
CCD stands for charged couple device and CMOS stands for Complimentary metal oxide semiconductor. The similarity is that they both take electrons and convert them into light but it differentiates when the light goes into a CCD it utilizes the light signals and changes them from analog into digital. Whereas CMOS actually use transistor chips that move the pixel via traditional wires.


JPEG & RAW
JPEG files are compressed and create a sharper, smaller in size, higher contrast and more "accessible." While on the other hand a RAW image is uncompressed and tends to contain a wider dynamic range to contain all of the initial data obtained from the sensor.
