Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot was taken at 1/160 s, f/22 aperture, and ISO 500, using a small aperture to achieve deep depth of field from the foreground timber of the Chapel Bridge to the distant Mount Pilatus. The evening light creates a sharp contrast between the warm-lit structures and the clear, cool sky.
- Use a small aperture to ensure sharpness from the foreground to the distant background.
- Take advantage of the evening light to highlight textures like the timber of the bridge.
- Focus on a composition where a prominent foreground element leads the viewer's eye towards the subject in the background.
