Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this shot, a shutter speed of 1/3 second was used to capture the movement of pedestrians and traffic as dynamic blur, while the aperture of f/9 ensures a deep depth of field. The ISO 80 setting provides optimal image quality for this exposure duration.

  • Use a longer shutter speed to consciously blur movement within your scene.
  • Choose a closed aperture like f/9 to keep both the foreground and background in focus.
  • Work with a low ISO value to minimize digital noise and achieve high detail accuracy.
