Photography tips

How this image was taken

Using an aperture of f/22 creates a distinct starburst effect around the sun, while the ISO 100 setting ensures low image noise for the 1/25 s exposure. The 15 mm focal length allows for a broad capture of the landscape.

  • Select a small aperture like f/22 to make light sources like the sun appear as a star.
  • Use a wide-angle lens such as 15 mm to emphasize the vastness of the lake and the sky.
  • Find a distinct element in the foreground, such as the single pole, to create a clear sense of depth in your composition.
