Pro Photographers Share Their Secrets for Taking Perfect Travel Shots

Near Le Grand-Bornand, Haute-Savoie, France

Gear: Linhof Master Technika, Schneider 135 mm lens, Gitzo carbon tripod

Settings: 160 ISO, f/8, 7-minute exposure

"This was shot in the French Alps as part of a series I did called "Full Moon," which features moonlit landscapes. I was staying at a ski resort and decided to go shoot by a nearby frozen lake. I wanted to get very sharp details and capture a lot of different tonalities despite the dark, so I shot this series on a large-format camera, and I used a low-ISO film so the photo wouldn't appear grainy. When you're doing a very long exposure like this, you need a tripod and a night with no wind — even a little tremble will cause a blurred image." —Roberto Frankenberg
