Photography tips
How this image was taken
To capture the movement of the train as a light trail, a long shutter speed of 6 seconds was chosen, while the aperture of f/4.5 ensures a balanced exposure in combination with the ISO 200 setting.
- Use a long shutter speed to render the train's motion as a continuous light trail.
- Apply a focal length of 20 mm to capture both the train in the foreground and the Pilatus massif in the background within the frame.
