Photography tips
How this image was taken
With a focal length of 12 mm, you capture the vastness of the mountain landscape, while the aperture of f/10 provides sufficient depth of field. The shutter speed of 1/200 s is fast enough to freeze the motion of the cable car.
- Use a wide-angle lens to establish a relationship between the prominent foreground trees and the background.
- Select a narrow aperture to ensure that both near and distant elements remain sharp.
- Pay attention to a fast shutter speed in foggy conditions to keep the moving cable car sharp within the mist.
