Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot at 400mm focal length uses an aperture of f/8 and a shutter speed of 1/800s to capture the fine details of the mountain range clearly at ISO 400.
- Use a telephoto lens to compress distant mountain ridges and emphasize the layered depth.
- Choose a mid-range aperture like f/8 to ensure sufficient depth of field at this distance.
- Pay attention to the evening light, as the low sun position enhances the three-dimensional effect of the various shadow zones.
