I recommend using a 16-35mm lens for the best results. Apply the rule of thirds, placing the snow-capped mountain in the top third of the frame, the winding river in the middle third, and the purple flower field in the bottom third to create depth and visual interest. Shoot at eye level to ensure a balanced composition. Other tips: This magical place looks great no matter how you shoot it.
