Photography tips
How this image was taken
In this image, the long exposure time of 20 seconds captures the light reflections in the water, while the aperture of f/11 ensures depth of field. An ISO of 800 provides a balanced compromise between image noise and sensitivity for these lighting conditions.
- Use a long exposure time to accurately capture the light installations in the water.
- Select a narrow aperture like f/11 so that the entire subject remains sharp from the foreground to the rock face.
- Utilize a moderate ISO setting during night photography to achieve a balanced exposure.
