Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using an aperture of f/25 allows for a deep depth of field, keeping both the foreground flowers and the distant subject in focus. The 100 mm focal length effectively compresses the visual space between the tower and the mountain.
- Incorporate a nearby foreground, such as flowers, to add depth to your composition.
- Select a small aperture to achieve sharp focus across multiple layers of the image.
- Adjust your focal length to control the relationship between the architecture and the background.
