About this photo

This photo was taken by ICHQ cd on 2013:06:06 14:45:33. The image has been post-processed using Embettered by PicMonkey. http://www.picmonkey.com, so it's possible that the shapes and/or colors have been modified, although these changes are usually minor and meant to improve the quality of the photo.

The camera used by the author of this photo was Canon EOS-1D Mark II by Canon, with a shutter speed of 1/400, a focal distance of 16/1 and an IOS of 100.

Image quaility

A shutter speed of 1/400 means the sensor was exposed for 0.0025 seconds. This is a low enough value to guaranty that the image is probably sharp, even if captured without a tripod or if it has moving objects in it.

An ISO of 100 means the lightning conditions this photo was taken under were probably quite good, most likely in the outdoors during the day or with the help of a tripod. A low ISO like this usually translates into a good image quality, without "noise" or other kind distortions.

    --FILE--View of the New Century Globle Center in Chengdu city, southwest Chinas Sichuan province, 6 June 2013. Located in Chengdu, a city with 14 million of population and also capital of Sichuan province in southwestern China, the New Century Global Center is the largest freestanding building in the world, Chinese officials say. Though the words worlds largest usually bring to mind an image of a towering skyscraper, this project actually is not all that tall. But it is certainly big. At 500 meters long, 400 meters wide and 100 meters high, the 1.7-million-square-meter mega-structure is capable of housing 20 Sydney Opera Houses and almost three times the size of the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. The Global Center, which opened June 28, is home to business offices, hotels, theaters, shopping malls, a faux Mediterranean village and family-themed attractions such as a water park called Paradise Island. The New Century Global Center is located in an entirely new planned area of Chengdu called Tainfu New District.
