Photography tips
How this image was taken
A focal length of 12 mm allows you to capture the entire panorama. The aperture of f/16 ensures deep depth of field, while the shutter speed of 1/320 s at ISO 200 effectively freezes the movement of the clouds.
- Use a wide-angle lens to capture the scale of the mountain scenery.
- Choose a narrow aperture to ensure both the buildings and the cloud formations remain sharp.
- Pay attention to the shutter speed to clearly render the dynamics of the passing clouds.
