Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this shot at night, a shutter speed of 1.3 seconds and an aperture of f/6.3 were chosen to capture the light projections precisely, while an ISO of 800 provides sufficient light sensitivity.

  • Use a longer shutter speed to compensate for the brightness of the light installations in dark surroundings.
  • Choose a mid-range aperture to achieve good image quality in night-time lighting conditions.
  • Adjust the ISO value to achieve a balanced ratio between image noise and light sensitivity at the selected aperture.
