Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using a focal length of 100 mm and an aperture of f/5.6 allows you to achieve a balanced depth of field, while the fast shutter speed of 1/400 s at ISO 100 crisply freezes the reflections on the water.
- Use a focal length of 100 mm to bring the sailboats visually closer to the hills and compress your composition.
- Pay close attention to the evening light when exposing your shot to effectively capture the reflections on the water surface.
- Opt for a low ISO setting to ensure a clean image without noise.
