Photography Tips : Switzerland as a Photography Tourist

Zermatt – Matterhorn October 2012

I decided to visit Switzerland as a tourist. For this trip I took a railpass for 15 days. It is not an optimal solution since one cannot make frequent stops to take pictures, The advantages were it was less tiring than driving and much cheaper than renting a car.   During this period I visited:

  • Grindelwald / Lauterbrunnen
  • Zermatt
  • Luzern / Engelberg
  • Lugano
  • Ascona / Lugano
  • Geneva
  • Fully
  • Thun
  • Lavaux
  • Evian (in France across from Lausanne)
  • Chatel St. Denis

I had pictures of Zurich, Bern and Lausanne so I decided to skip them. In October weather is a factor and I lost a couple of days due to rainy weather.

Like in some other countries, taking pictures of people can get complicated. I have been asked to delete pictures on occasions for privacy reasons.
