Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot at 15 mm focal length, an aperture of f/22 was used to achieve a deep depth of field, while the 1/250 s shutter speed freezes the movement on the water. The ISO 800 setting ensured sufficient exposure in the evening light.
- Use a wide-angle lens to capture both the architecture of the church and the bridge railing in the foreground.
- Select a small aperture like f/22 to ensure that everything from the nearby bridge to the building remains in focus.
- Pay attention to clear lines in your composition by using the bridge railing as a leading element to guide the eye toward the building.
