Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this night shot, the combination of an f/2 aperture and a 1 s shutter speed at ISO 200 allowed enough light to reach the sensor despite the dark environment, while maintaining image quality.

  • Use a wide aperture like f/2 to capture as much light as possible in low-light conditions.
  • Choose a wide-angle focal length of 12 mm to include the wooden architectural structure as a framing foreground.
  • Experiment with the shutter speed to achieve a steady shot of the Wasserturm with a 1 s exposure.
