Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this shot at 1/30 s and ISO 200, an aperture of f/18 was used to capture both the architecture and the surroundings with a deep depth of field. The 30 mm focal length provides a balanced perspective of the Chapel Bridge and the river Reuss.

  • Use a narrow aperture like f/18 to ensure focus remains sharp from the bridge to the background.
  • Take advantage of the soft evening light to emphasize the warm tones of the historic architecture.
  • Maintain a steady camera grip with a shutter speed of 1/30 s to avoid blur in your landscape composition.
