Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken with an aperture of f/16 and a shutter speed of 1/320 s at ISO 200. The closed aperture ensures deep focus, while the fast shutter speed captures the moving fog with clear structure.
- Use a closed aperture to capture details of both the building and the mountain surroundings under variable light conditions.
- Pay attention to the composition and the dynamics of the clouds, which retain their structure thanks to the fast shutter speed.
- Use a focal length of 25 mm to frame the vastness of the alpine landscape together with the architecture.
