Photography tips
How this image was taken
A shutter speed of 1 s was chosen to capture the rotation of the carousel as light trails. The aperture of f/11 ensures sufficient depth of field, while the ISO setting of 500 allows for balanced exposure in these low-light conditions.
- Use a long shutter speed to capture the motion of rides as light trails.
- Choose a small aperture like f/11 to keep details in the frame sharp.
- Use a wide-angle lens (12 mm) to capture the entire carousel and its surroundings in a single frame.
