Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night shot, the shutter speed of 1.6 seconds allows for capturing the light installations, while the aperture of f/6.3 ensures a balanced depth of field. The ISO of 800 compensates for the low light in this environment.
- Use the historic stone arch as a natural frame to purposefully highlight the main subject.
- Choose a focal length of 30 mm to maintain a natural field of view that integrates both the Wasserturm and the architecture.
- Focus on precise composition to add depth to the image by using the architecture in the foreground.
