No

Yes, 4 fir foreground and 1 for the mountain. All same exposure value and same settings

Four for the foreground and one for rest. Unfortunately my camera is too old for in camera stacking 🤣

Manually, when I am done with a focus on stacking the foreground and bringing the background layer on top of that. So after the stacking and before any global adjustment. It can be done in the end though...

u/ShinyStache no it is fine. check ur inbox for my email

Lol I almost did

exactly

Hahaha thank you. Means a lot to see this kind of appreciation <3

u/mohitpatel845 thank you for the compliment. The technique involved focus stacking but not exposure stacking, all the shots had the same exposure value. with modern-day cameras, you don't need multiple exposure values anymore, you can open the shadows easily in photoshop without any noise. Hope that helps

for what?

I would say June to August for green and flowers in the mountain, and October 15- Nov 10 for Autumn colors (but cold)

Switzerland is AI generated lol

Nothing is stretched here, the clouds were just like that.

Already corrected

Yes

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

Everything in Switzerland will fit there, because they are too good to be true

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.

Haha you caught me red handed

That is totally fine. If people nicely ask that is totally fine but then there are these smarty pants replying every comments that I photoshopped the flowers from somewhere else.

It was summer not that cold but windy like hell
