Photography tips
How this image was taken
The 2-second exposure time, combined with f/5 aperture and ISO 200, allows you to capture the lights of the Ferris wheel and their reflections in the water with high contrast as the light fades.
- Use a long exposure time to effectively capture the lights during the sunset.
- Select a medium aperture like f/5 to clearly define the Ferris wheel lights while maintaining a balanced image.
- Use a 30 mm focal length to create a stable composition that frames both the Ferris wheel and Mount Pilatus appropriately.
