Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using an aperture of f/7.1 ensures high depth of field, while the shutter speed of 1.6 s captures the movement of vehicles with a dynamic blur. The ISO value of 200 maintains a clear image quality under the given lighting conditions.
- Use the architecture of the historic wooden roof as a natural frame to guide the eye toward the station square.
- Experiment with the shutter speed to vary the visual representation of the urban traffic movement.
- Choose a focal length of 25 mm to capture both the protective wooden roof in the foreground and the activity on the bridge in one composition.
