Photography tips

How this image was taken

For this shot, a focal length of 12 mm was used to capture a wide angle including both the Chapel Bridge and Mount Pilatus. The aperture of f/18 combined with a shutter speed of 1/15 s provides deep depth of field from the foreground to the mountain.

  • Use a wide-angle lens to capture the entire scene featuring the bridge and the background.
  • Select a narrow aperture like f/18 to ensure details in the foreground and the distant mountain remain sharp.
  • Pay attention to a steady camera grip when using a shutter speed of 1/15 s to avoid motion blur.
