Photography tips
How this image was taken
Using an aperture of f/22 creates a large depth of field, ensuring that both the foreground meadow flowers and the distant Lake Lucerne appear sharp. The shutter speed of 1/60 s combined with ISO 400 provides the correct exposure for these settings.
- Use a small aperture to maintain high depth of field from the foreground to the background.
- Get close to the meadow flowers to create depth through the contrast with the lake.
- Choose a 30 mm focal length to capture both the plant details and the wide panorama.
