Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot at dusk, the 6-second shutter speed allowed for the dynamic motion blur of the vehicle, while the f/16 aperture ensured deep focus and the characteristic starburst effect on the streetlights.
- Choose a longer shutter speed to capture motion as a blur in the scene.
- Use a small aperture like f/16 to create starburst patterns around point light sources.
- Keep the ISO setting low to minimize image noise in the darker areas during long exposures.
