A full-frame front photo of a villa hotel, modern style, Sumatran roof, four stories, with a courtyard in the front; taken at sunset.
Camera: Sony α7R IV. Wide-angle lens (e.g., 16-35mm) to capture the entire view of the villa and courtyard.
Settings: Manual mode (M mode); Aperture: Choose a smaller aperture value (such as f/8-f/11) to achieve sufficient depth of field, ensuring both the villa and courtyard are clearly visible.
Shutter speed: Adjust shutter speed according to lighting conditions to achieve proper exposure. A slower shutter speed (e.g., 1/4 second to several seconds) may be needed.
ISO: Use a lower ISO value (e.g., 100 or 200) to reduce noise and ensure image quality.
White balance: Use the 'Sunlight' mode under natural light to maintain accurate colors.
Use a tripod: In low light conditions, use a tripod to ensure stability and sharpness.
Observe the light: Find an appropriate angle to create interesting and eye-catching patterns of sunlight and shadows.
Composition: Place the villa in the center of the frame, paying attention to balance and symmetry. Also, observe the courtyard to ensure its elements are well-represented
