Photography Tips
For the best range of landscape in one picture you should use a wide-angle lens.
Picture 1: If you don´t have your one with you or just 24mm or more you can create a series like a panorama. Do three portrait angle pictures next to each other, pay attention to the same level of the horizon and use a tool like Lightroom to put them together.
Picture 2: For more details from the water you can use a tele-zoom lens along your way. There are several options.
