Photography tips
How this image was taken
In this shot, an aperture of f/18 was used to achieve a deep depth of field, keeping both the flowers in the foreground and the hotel in the background sharp. The 12 mm focal length provides a wide angle to capture the vastness of the mountain scenery.
- Use a small aperture such as f/18 to ensure focus from the foreground to the horizon.
- Choose a short focal length in the wide-angle range to capture the entire scenery and emphasize the flowers in the foreground.
- Consciously place prominent foreground elements in your frame to add depth to your image.
