Photography tips

How this image was taken

To keep both the iron railing and the background in focus, an aperture of f/22 was used. The shutter speed of 1/10 s combined with a low ISO value ensures a steady exposure during the fading evening light.

  • Use a wide-angle lens like 12 mm to effectively frame the Wasserturm through the opening in the railing.
  • Pay attention to the depth of field when using an aperture of f/22 to ensure both the foreground and the distant subject remain clearly visible.
  • Position yourself so that the soft evening light accentuates the architectural details of the railing while capturing the light reflections on the water.
