Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot, the aperture of f/10 ensures consistent sharpness from the nearby facades to the tower, while the shutter speed of 1/80 s at ISO 320 provides sufficient exposure in the soft daylight.
- Use the perspective of a narrow alley to focus the viewer's eye on a distinct architectural detail in the background.
- Choose a mid-range aperture like f/10 to keep both the foreground and the distant parts of the scene in focus.
- Create a symmetrical composition by aligning the surrounding building walls parallel to the edges of your frame.
