Photography tips

How this image was taken

To capture this light projection in the Hofkirche, a shutter speed of 1/13 s was chosen, which allowed for sufficient exposure of the dark surroundings at ISO 5000. The aperture of f/4 combined with a focal length of 12 mm provides the necessary depth of field and wide angle to capture the entire architecture.

  • Use a wide-angle lens to fully frame the entire church interior and the projection.
  • Select a high ISO sensitivity to ensure a sufficiently short shutter speed despite the challenging light conditions.
  • Pay attention to your aperture selection to maintain sharp architectural details while working with the light projection.
