Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this night shot, the 1-second shutter speed ensures sufficient light exposure, while the f/8 aperture provides good depth of field through the ship window and the ISO 640 setting keeps image noise at a moderate level.
- Use a ship window or another natural frame shape to deliberately focus the composition on your subject.
- Experiment with the shutter speed to achieve the desired brightness in the image during low light conditions.
- Select a medium aperture like f/8 to ensure both the frame and the distant light subject remain in focus.
