Photography tips

How this image was taken

The combination of a 2-second shutter speed and an aperture of f/22 allows you to smooth out the movement of the water and capture the light points of the surroundings precisely, while the ISO 100 setting ensures minimal image noise.

  • Utilize the long shutter speed to depict the water of the Reuss in a smooth and calm manner.
  • Select a narrow aperture to achieve a deep depth of field across the entire image.
  • Use a 17 mm focal length to capture a wide-angle perspective that encompasses the Chapel Bridge and its surroundings.
