Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using an aperture of f/22 ensures a deep depth of field, keeping both the foreground flowers and background branches in focus. The combination of ISO 200 and a shutter speed of 1/80 s at 30 mm focal length provides a balanced exposure in this bright spring light.
- Choose a perspective directly underneath the canopy to isolate the blossoms against the clear sky.
- Focus on the composition by using the branches as natural leading lines to guide the viewer's eye.
- When using settings like a small aperture of f/22, ensure there is enough ambient light to keep your shutter speed at a functional level.
