Photography tips

How this image was taken

Using an aperture of f/6.3 and ISO 100 provides a good balance between depth of field and image quality in available light. The shutter speed of 1/160 s at 30 mm focal length effectively prevents camera shake.

  • Use the chair as a design element to purposefully frame the subject in the background.
  • Select a low shooting angle to make the foreground object stand out clearly against the horizon.
  • Pay attention to the evening atmosphere to make the most of the warm light within your composition.
