Photography tips

How this image was taken

With a shutter speed of 1.3 seconds, you capture the movement of the Ferris wheel as a gentle blur, while the aperture of f/11 ensures depth of field. The low ISO of 200 keeps the image free of noise.

  • Use a longer shutter speed to depict the circular motion of the Ferris wheel as dynamic light trails.
  • Choose a small aperture like f/11 so that both the wheel and the reflection in the water are sharply focused.
  • Pay attention to a low ISO value to maintain image quality in low light.
