Photography tips

How this image was taken

The shutter speed of 2 seconds creates a visible motion blur of the rotating Ferris wheel, while the aperture of f/22 allows for deep depth of field. Combined with the low ISO value of 80, the image remains noise-free despite the long exposure.

  • Use a long shutter speed to make movement in dynamic objects visible.
  • Select a closed aperture to achieve consistent sharpness throughout the image.
  • Experiment with the focal length of 12 mm to capture expansive scenes and reflections in their entirety.
