Photography tips
How this image was taken
This night shot uses a shutter speed of 1 s to capture the ambient light, while the aperture of f/2 and an ISO of 400 ensure proper exposure for the 12 mm wide-angle focal length.
- Use a long shutter speed to make the light reflections of the illuminated architecture visible in the water.
- Select a wide aperture like f/2 to ensure enough light hits the sensor in challenging lighting conditions.
- Utilize a wide-angle focal length to include the entire subject of the historic bridge in your frame.
