Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this shot, a shutter speed of 1/500 s and an aperture of f/5.6 were used to capture the architectural details of the minster sharply at a focal length of 163 mm. The ISO of 400 ensures sufficient exposure on this overcast day.

  • Use a longer focal length to isolate architectural details like the spire.
  • Choose a shutter speed fast enough to avoid motion blur when using telephoto lenses.
  • Adjust the ISO according to the lighting conditions to achieve clear exposure under an overcast sky.
