Photography tips
How this image was taken
This long-exposure night shot uses a shutter speed of one second to capture the motion of the Ferris wheel as light trails, while the f/4.5 aperture at ISO 200 ensures adequate exposure for the dark surroundings.
- Choose a shutter speed of approximately one second to intentionally create dynamic light trails from the wheel's rotation.
- Use a moderate aperture like f/4.5 to let enough light reach the sensor at night without overexposing the details of the full moon.
- Maintain a low ISO setting to minimize image noise in the dark night sky and ensure light points are rendered sharply.
