Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night shot, an aperture of f/4 and an ISO of 4000 allow for a shutter speed of 1/10 s, capturing the fountain details and city backdrop despite low ambient light.
- Use a wide aperture like f/4 to allow as much light as possible onto the sensor at night.
- Adjust the ISO to a higher value so that the shutter speed remains fast enough to avoid excessive motion blur in the fountains.
- Include people or foreground elements in your composition to add depth to the night scene.
