The sun was nearly set on a cloudy, breezy evening along the Gulf coast of Florida. I wanted to stop the motion of the waves on the choppy water so I needed at least a medium shutter speed. I also wanted sufficient focus from the foreground rocks to the farthest skyline, so I needed at least a medium aperture.
In order to get enough light into the camera with these other requirements, I needed to raise the ISO as high as it would go. While the high ISO setting did produce noise, I was able to reduce it using Lightroom Classic's noise reduction sliders in the Detail panel of the Develop module.
