Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Morning, Mid-day, Late afternoon
Box Park can be photographed any month of year—but it's best to avoid the summer months when it's very hot :)
When the sun is harshest, at mid-day, it really brings out the colors of the boxes. That said, visiting at sunset would also be beautiful, as you can enjoy great views from Doha here as well. Plus, you will probably be hungry after the shooting time :)

Field tips

Box Park is a colorful haven. Explore the area, trying different combinations and perspectives.
Try incorporating a model. You can bring vibrancy to your portraiture by using the colorful boxes as a backdrop. Catch a ray of light on their face! Boom!
You can also try to frame the boxes with the Doha skyline—a great contrast. Or, lay on the ground and wait for a plane to pass by, framed by the colorful boxes.
