Photography tips
How this image was taken
With a shutter speed of 3.2 seconds and an aperture of f/3.5, the ambient twilight was captured while the ISO 400 ensured balanced image quality.
- Use a wide-angle focal length of 22 mm to capture both the vastness of the landscape and the silhouette of the tree in the foreground.
- Incorporate a dark element like a tree as a frame to add depth to your composition.
- Choose a longer shutter speed to correctly expose the city lights against the dark surroundings.
