Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night shot, a shutter speed of 1/2 s and an aperture of f/3.5 were chosen to capture the light of the fountains at an ISO of 500.
- Use a shutter speed of half a second to gently capture the flow of the water without losing the outlines.
- Select a wide aperture like f/3.5 to allow enough light to reach the sensor in dark conditions.
- Use a wide-angle lens with a 12 mm focal length to capture the entire row of fountains in the image.
