Rock faces

View of the misty, cloud-covered rock faces and forest areas of Mount Pilatus

Key tips

  1. Use a mid-range aperture like f/11 to achieve a deep depth of field and capture both the rock faces and cloud formations in detail.
  2. Use a focal length of around 45 mm to capture the rock faces from a distance and focus the composition on the essential elements.
