Photography tips
How this image was taken
The aperture setting of f/13 ensures high depth of field, while the shutter speed of 1/320 s at ISO 200 prevents motion blur of the cable car and captures the diffused light within the fog.
- Use a stopped-down aperture like f/13 to maintain consistent sharpness throughout the image despite the dense fog.
- Set a shutter speed of at least 1/320 s to ensure the moving cable car is rendered sharply.
- Keep your ISO low in misty mountain conditions to achieve a clean image despite the challenging light.
