Photography tips
How this image was taken
In this shot, a long exposure time of 30 s captures the night light, while the f/20 aperture creates the distinct star effects on the spotlights. The 15 mm focal length provided a wide view of the KKL and its reflection.
- Use a small aperture like f/20 to create star effects on light sources.
- Employ a long exposure time to reveal details in dark areas and reflections.
- Choose a short focal length in the wide-angle range to capture the entire building and the surrounding foreground.
