Photography tips
How this image was taken
This dusk shot uses a shutter speed of 2 s to capture the ambient light and render the reflections of the lights on the water smoothly. The 12 mm focal length provides a comprehensive view of the bridge and the city skyline.
- Use a longer shutter speed to make the lights on the water surface appear smooth and calm.
- Choose a low ISO setting like ISO 100 to avoid image noise in the dark areas during dusk.
- Use a wide-angle lens to capture both the bridge and the city architecture within the same frame.
