Photography tips

How this image was taken

Using an aperture of f/14 allows for a deep depth of field, keeping both the cobblestones in the foreground and the Chapel Bridge in the background sharp, while the 1 s shutter speed captures the ambient light. An ISO setting of 200 ensures high image quality without unwanted noise.

  • Use a small aperture like f/14 to achieve consistent sharpness from the foreground to the background in architectural shots.
  • Select a longer shutter speed to capture sufficient light when shooting in narrow, shaded alleyways.
  • Use a focal length of 29 mm to intentionally frame your shot and lead the viewer's eye into the depth of the scene.
