Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot with a shutter speed of 25 seconds and an aperture of f/25, a low amount of light was captured to render the cloud movements softly. An ISO of 100 ensures the image remains as noise-free as possible.
- Use a long shutter speed to capture the dynamics of the clouds drifting over the snow-covered mountain massif.
- Choose a small aperture like f/25 if you want to let the evening light hit the sensor in a controlled manner over a longer duration.
- Pay close attention to a stable foundation when shooting with a 300 mm focal length to avoid camera shake during the long exposure.
