Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night scene, the combination of an f/4 aperture and a 1/13 second shutter speed at ISO 200 ensures sufficient light capture for the glowing installation and the surrounding people. The choice of a 45 mm focal length also allows for a natural perspective of the scene.
- Use a wide aperture to allow enough light to reach the sensor in challenging night conditions.
- Maintain a steady camera grip with slower shutter speeds like 1/13 second to avoid motion blur.
- Choose a low ISO value to keep the image clear and free of distracting noise.
