Photography tips
How this image was taken
The aperture of f/16 ensures a high depth of field, keeping both the nearby Ferris wheel and the distant mountains sharp, while an ISO of 400 balances light sensitivity under cloudy conditions.
- Use a small aperture like f/16 to achieve consistent sharpness from the foreground to the background.
- Select a shutter speed of 1/80 s to capture the scene clearly while maintaining stable handheld shooting.
- Include a distinct foreground element like the flag to create a sense of depth and perspective in your composition.
