For shots that don't involve moving subjects and on a tripod I think one should almost always use the lowest ISO possible. This will help make the image appear sharper because of less or no noise reduction. | |

re-amp after comments & question edit. Still only concentrating on one question, not the others which should be moved out to separate questions.

Anyways, I shot first pic at 35mm, ISO 200, f/11, 0.6 sec, IS off, focus set at near most tower. Using Canon 100D with kit lens Canon 18-55 ISII. Second pic at 35mm, ISO 200, f/11, 2.5 sec, IS off, using same lens as above | |

You should run some test shots in half light like this to see when your ISO appears to get noisy [there's a lot of debate on how this actually works,. but it's simple enough to tell when enough is enough] Let me add a bit more... | |
| Sep 7, 2020 at 18:15 | comment | added | pixhibit.samco | I understand the point you are trying to make. Its just I believe I could have shot this better to have more detail in area covered by small vegetation just after the first tower. But it all look so washed out. its hardly 2.5 sec and the first one is 0.6 sec. There was no strong winds around that time. Also, with you edits i could notice some chromatic aberrations in the bushes in the front and some fringes around the boundaries of the main cloud. Should this be avoided in first place? | |
