Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken with a focal length of 45 mm and an aperture of f/11, ensuring good depth of field from the foreground tiled roof to the distant Alps. The ISO of 200 and a shutter speed of 1/100 s provide a sharp image under the prevailing lighting conditions.
- Use the perspective from elevated viewpoints to utilize the tiled roofs as a natural frame for the panorama.
- Select a narrow aperture like f/11 so that both the textures of the roofs in the foreground and the Ferris wheel and Alps remain sharp.
- Pay attention to the composition by deliberately placing prominent elements, such as the Ferris wheel, between the edges of the buildings to create a sense of depth.
