Photography tips
How this image was taken
This shot at dusk uses an aperture of f/9 to capture both the architecture of the Chapel Bridge and the visible Mount Pilatus in the background in sharp detail. The combination of a 1/160 s shutter speed and ISO 200 ensures a balanced exposure in the available light.
- Choose a mid-range aperture for consistent depth of field to capture both foreground and background clearly.
- Use a fast shutter speed to reliably freeze motion in the water or of birds.
- Use a wide-angle lens to include the bridge, the water tower, and the mountain within one frame.
