Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken with a shutter speed of 1/320 s at f/6.3 and ISO 100 to freeze the rainbow and the movement of the birds. The focal length of 45 mm provides a natural field of view that places the water tower and bridge within their surroundings.
- Use a shutter speed of at least 1/320 s to capture flying birds without motion blur.
- Choose a medium aperture like f/6.3 to ensure sufficient depth of field across the scene.
- Keep your ISO low to maintain image quality and avoid noise.
