Yes, multiple shots with same shutter speed & settings, but focussed at different points as the plants in the immediate foreground are quite closed. Not different focal lengths for this image as those peaks are quite big, however, I use that technique from time to time.

Focus stacking?

So not a single exposure.

You're either incorrect or lying to people. An exposure is a shutter cycle. If you blend multiple shutter cycles into an image it is not by definition a single exposure.

Yes that is, by definition, multiple exposures but at different focal planes.

Yea this person is wrong. If you ended up with multiple files that you then stacked/blended together to make the final image, then the image is by definition a multiple exposure image.

To put it another way; the camera sensor was exposed multiple times to capture the image, hence being a multiple exposure image.

When I read their initial setup, I wondered how tf they could rack focus from the plants to the mountains during a single shutter click without lens warping or any blurring.

Is this a distinction made possible by digital cameras/photography? What limited experience I have is from traditional film, and I have trouble envisioning what you say in that context.

The sensor was exposed multiple times to take the image though. It's a multiple exposure image.

TIL that photography is a lot more complicated than I thought it was.

Can you give the focal length? And general angle to take these photos? Beautiful by the way

Most of these kinds of shots are taken at 15 mm (which is the widest I have available). The angle totally depends on what I want in my composition, for example in this shot I wanted that stream and the whole reflection of the mountain in the midground, so I was higher from the ground. In some shots, there is nothing interesting in the midground, and so I am more closed to the ground and immediate foreground. Hope it helps
