Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night shot, an aperture of f/11 and a shutter speed of 4 s were chosen to achieve deep focus and to capture the light reflections on the water surface in detail.
- Select a small aperture like f/11 to ensure clear definition of the architectural light sources and the Ferris wheel.
- Use a longer shutter speed so that the calm water surface reflects the surrounding lights evenly.
- Focus on a balanced composition between the buildings along the shore and the reflections in the lake using a focal length of 27 mm.
