Photography tips
How this image was taken
For night photography of light installations, a long shutter speed of 5 seconds helps to capture sufficient light from the surroundings, while the aperture of f/8 ensures good image quality.
- Use a long shutter speed to capture the available light of the illuminations and achieve an even exposure of the buildings.
- Choose a medium aperture like f/8 to obtain consistent sharpness throughout the entire scene.
- Use a wide-angle lens to include the entire scenery, including the reflections on the water, within your frame.
