Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this nocturnal shot, the shutter speed of 1/6 s combined with an aperture of f/4.5 and ISO 800 ensures sufficient exposure of the light projection while maintaining detail in the architecture. The 24 mm focal length allows for capturing the entire station portal.

  • Use a wider aperture to capture sufficient detail in low light conditions.
  • Choose a longer shutter speed to transfer the luminosity of the projection onto the sensor.
  • Use a wide-angle lens to capture the monumental impact of the architecture.
