Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot at dusk, the shutter speed of 2 seconds captures sufficient light, while the aperture of f/7.1 provides balanced depth of field. The ISO of 400 keeps image noise low at a wide-angle focal length of 13 mm.
- Use a wide-angle lens to capture both the architecture and its surroundings.
- Incorporate a prominent foreground element like a lamp to create depth.
- Use longer exposure times to naturally record the light of the twilight.
