Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken with a shutter speed of 1.6 s to capture sufficient light in nocturnal conditions, while the f/16 aperture ensures a deep depth of field. The ISO of 800 balances light sensitivity and image quality.
- Use a long shutter speed to effectively capture light reflecting on wet surfaces.
- Choose a small aperture like f/16 if you want to keep details sharp from the foreground to the background.
- Pay attention to a stable position when shooting at night, as the exposure time can lead to motion blur.
