Photography tips

How this image was taken

With an aperture of f/10, this shot achieves a deep depth of field, while the low ISO of 100 ensures optimal image quality. The 25 mm focal length allows for a wide overview, capturing both the hotel and the surrounding mountain massif.

  • Use a closed aperture like f/10 to keep both the foreground and the expansive mountain landscape in focus.
  • Utilize a wide-angle focal length of 25 mm to embed the dimensions of the summit ridge into the golden light.
  • Keep the ISO setting low in bright light to minimize image noise and preserve details in the golden light.
