Photography tips

How this image was taken

An aperture of f/10 was used for this shot to achieve sufficient depth of field, while the shutter speed of 1/100 s at ISO 200 ensures a sharp image.

  • Use the archway as a framing element to guide the viewer's gaze toward the historic subject in the center.
  • Select a closed aperture like f/10 to ensure both the archway in the foreground and the building in the background remain in focus.
  • Pay attention to precise composition at a focal length of 100 mm to keep architectural lines aligned.
