Photography tips
How this image was taken
With a shutter speed of 1 second, circular light trails are created by the movement of the carousel, while the f/18 aperture ensures a controlled exposure of the bright LED lights.
- Use a longer shutter speed to capture the movement of the lights as continuous trails.
- Select a narrow aperture like f/18 to prevent overexposure of the bright light sources.
- Work with a short focal length of 12 mm to capture the entire subject in a wide field of view.
