Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken using a long exposure of 2 seconds, which captures the rotation of the Ferris wheel as motion blur. The small aperture of f/22 helped to achieve a balanced exposure at ISO 200 despite the long shutter speed.
- Use a long shutter speed to capture the movement of subjects like a Ferris wheel through intentional blur.
- Choose a small aperture setting like f/22 when you want to extend your exposure time in daylight without overexposing the frame.
- Use a wide-angle focal length of 13 mm to emphasize the height and scale of the structure within your composition.
