Just a heads-up — if you did a photograph for aesthetic reasons or something, carry on, but if you did so because you couldn’t find a good way to take a screenshot, I usually use the command-line grim utility. I’ll sometimes do something like $ sleep 3; grim on one workspace, then flip to the one I want to screenshot, so that three seconds after issuing the command, it’ll save a screenshot.
I’m sure that there are also other utilities out there, and KDE Plasma may have its own screenshot utility built in somewhere. But I can vouch that grim will do it.
Your shortcut, or just PrtSc does the default thing (configurable in Preferences).
Meta + Shift + Print = Rectangular region
Shift + Print = Fullscreen
Meta + Print = Active window
Meta + Ctrl + Print = Select window
Options include:
Include mouse pointer
Include window titlebar and borders
Include window shadow
Quit after manual save or copy

On KDE, Meta/Win + Shift + S brings up the screenshot utility
Spectacle.
Different shortcuts for different things.
