Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot uses a shutter speed of 6 seconds to capture the flowing water of the Reuss in a smooth way, while the narrow aperture of f/18 allows for a deep depth of field from the foreground to the Jesuit Church.
- Select a long shutter speed to achieve a similar soft water movement.
- Use a small aperture to maintain detail throughout the architecture and surroundings.
- Experiment with the 13 mm focal length to capture the vastness of the scene.
