Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this daylight shot, I selected an aperture of f/14 to ensure both the magnolia blossoms in the foreground and the Musegg Tower in the background are captured with a deep depth of field. The combination of ISO 200 and 1/100 second allowed for precise exposure of the subject at a focal length of 12 mm.
- Use a small aperture to keep both foreground and background in focus.
- Select a wide-angle lens to use the magnolia tree as a frame for the architecture.
- Pay attention to a low ISO setting for high image quality when shooting under a bright sky.
