Photography tips
How this image was taken
With an aperture of f/32 and a focal length of 30 mm, the focus is placed deliberately on the fountain in the foreground, while the shutter speed of 1/13 s at ISO 800 balances the lighting conditions. This combination allows for a sharp depiction of a prominent detail while intentionally blurring the background.
- Use a wide aperture to separate your main foreground subject from the background more effectively.
- Choose a fast shutter speed if you want to avoid motion blur in the flowing water.
- Experiment with your perspective by placing the focal point specifically on a close-up element.
