Lake Minnewanka


by Tim Scott


Fujifilm X-T3, 16-55mm, 1/150sec
at f/8, ISO 160


*PLEASE ALLOW UP TO 28 DAYS FOR DELIVERY


This was taken while Tim and
his wife were driving the Lake
Minnewanka Loop in Banff
National Park in Canada. As
he explains, ‘My wife Nic was
keeping an eye on the traffic
while I nipped out to the
middle of the road. I used the
flip-out screen on my Fujifilm
X-T3 to get low down, focused
about a third of the way into
the shot and used f/8 to get a
fast enough shutter speed
while keeping reasonably
good front-to-back
sharpness.’ Tim uploaded this
shot to Twitter using
#appicoftheweek.
