Photography tips

How this image was taken

With an aperture of f/20, you achieve a deep depth of field, ensuring that both the red flower in the foreground and the wood of the Chapel Bridge appear sharp. The shutter speed of 1/60 s, combined with ISO 800, allows for a precise exposure under the given lighting conditions.

  • Use an aperture of f/16 or higher to achieve consistent sharpness from front to back when shooting with a wide-angle lens.
  • Choose a striking element for the foreground to add depth to the image and guide the viewer's gaze.
  • Experiment with the perspective by moving close to an object, creating a natural frame for the architectural subject.
