Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken at a focal length of 177 mm with a shutter speed of 1/640 s and aperture f/6.3, which allowed for a sharp capture of the chapel from a distance at ISO 500.
- Use a longer focal length to isolate the building from its steep surroundings.
- Ensure a sufficiently fast shutter speed to avoid motion blur when shooting from above.
- Select a moderate aperture to clearly define the main subject against the environment.
