Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this nighttime shot, the wide aperture of f/2.8 allows sufficient light, while the shutter speed of 1/10 s and ISO 400 capture the atmosphere of the illuminated Ferris wheel.
- Use a wide aperture to capture enough brightness in low-light conditions.
- Pay attention to the water surface to incorporate the reflections of the city lights into your composition.
- Experiment with the shutter speed to find the right balance between the bright light sources and the dark surroundings.
