Photography tips

How this image was taken

This image was captured using a 15 mm focal length and an aperture of f/8, allowing for extensive depth of field. The shutter speed of 1/60 second at ISO 200 ensures a clear rendering of the scene in the available light.

  • Use a wide-angle lens such as 15 mm to capture both the Chapel Bridge and the old town.
  • Set an aperture of f/8 to achieve a detailed result of the architecture and evening light.
  • Ensure a short shutter speed to avoid motion blur when shooting handheld.
