Photography tips
How this image was taken
For this shot, a focal length of 150 mm and an aperture of f/5.6 were used to layer the various mountain ranges. The shutter speed of 1/400 s combined with an ISO of 200 ensures a clear representation of the silhouettes in the evening light.
- Use a longer focal length to compress distant mountain ranges and create a stronger sense of depth.
- Choose a mid-range aperture to achieve a clear separation of individual layers while maintaining good focus.
- Pay attention to exposure in the evening light to emphasize the mountain contours as silhouettes against the bright sky.
