Photography tips

How this image was taken

This shot was taken with a 400 mm focal length and an aperture of f/8 to isolate the luminous subject. The shutter speed of 1/250 s allowed the light of the installation to be captured precisely, while the ISO 800 balanced the low light conditions at night.

  • Use a long focal length to strongly isolate the background and highlight the main subject.
  • Select a medium aperture to achieve sufficient depth of field in challenging lighting conditions.
  • Adjust the ISO setting to match the brightness of the installation to ensure a fast enough shutter speed for sharp, blur-free images.
