This perfectly symmetrical look up is a classic! With its leading lines and shapes it’s great to photograph.

How to get there

N22° 17' 21.7572"E114° 12' 16.3404"
The featured image is a look up within the Bedford Garden. There are four similar look ups formed by the towers. I stood at the most southeast one which is along Pak Fuk Rd. It’s a residence so you should accompany someone who lives there. I recommend only bringing out your camera at the look up spot as not to disturb anyone. By MTR station: - Closest MTR Station: North Point (Island Line & Tsuen Wan Line) - Take Exit "B4" - Turn left to Tsat Tsz Mui Road - Turn right on Kam Hong Street - Turn left to Tanner Road - Turn right on Kai Yuen Street Address: Bedford Garden, 169 Tin Hau Temple Rd, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong

Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Late afternoon
All months are suitable to photograph the look up at Bedford Garden.
I recommend visiting in the late-afternoon when the light’s strong but not too harsh. Although, any time of day should work!

Field tips

Be respectful of the residents.
By using a wide-angle lens (11mm) you’ll be able to frame the four buildings and more of their floors.
Take your time to get familiar with the area’s leading lines and find your creative midpoint.
Experiment with different angles of the square shape created by the tops of the towers.
