Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot, the aperture of f/10 provides sufficient depth of field for the mountain range, while the shutter speed of 1/80 s and ISO 800 ensure a proper exposure in the autumnal evening light.
- Choose an aperture around f/10 to keep both the autumn forest in the foreground and the Pilatus massif in the background sharp.
- Use a moderate focal length like 45 mm to ensure the proportions between the forest and the mountain appear natural.
- Pay attention to correct exposure in evening light to retain detail in the shadows of the forested slopes.
