Photography tips
How this image was taken
To capture this abstract light atmosphere, an aperture of f/2.8 was used to dissolve the light sources through intentional blurring. The combination of a 1/10 s shutter speed and ISO 1600 allowed for sufficient exposure in the dark environment.
- Use the manual focus on your camera and shift the focus point until the light sources blur into shapes.
- Select the widest possible aperture to render the light points softly and control the degree of blur.
- Look for high-contrast light sources when choosing your subject, as they stand out effectively when blurred.
