This is a long-exposure shot of Xinghai Bay Bridge (星海湾大桥) in China, captured during blue hour with a Nikon D3500 and a Tokina 11–20mm f/2.8 lens. The location is a popular spot for both locals and tourists to watch the sunset and take casual travel photos. It was my first time visiting this place — and also my first attempt at long-exposure photography. I was fortunate to have a beautiful sunset sky that added so much to the scene. The exposure settings were 13 seconds at f/16, ISO 100.
