I just love these buildings. Its hexagonal patterns and leading lines are perfect – and they all lead to the center. You can capture three buildings all in one shot at this location!

Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Sunset
All months of the year are suitable to photograph this look up.
At sunset the buildings will best reflect the sunlight – notice the orange tint! And since this is a Look Up, you’re also more likely to have vibrant sky and clouds. I suggest visiting on a weekday when the location is likely to have less people.

Field tips

Try getting low – even on the ground - to capture as much of the building façades as you can.
I aligned my frame using the building at the bottom (The Gateway) as a reference, and then shifted my camera up. The buildings aren’t 100% aligned to a common line of symmetry, so hopefully this doesn’t bother you!
Be patient and wait for dramatic clouds to pass between the buildings.
