Sloane Gardens view of Red Brick Houses

avatar
@elensham
Often times, this street can be easily missed by pedestrians who walk by without noticing how quaint their surroundings are. The long row of brick houses, with their grand entrances and bright red-brick color shouldn't be overlooked, though. This location is one of a kind in the heart of Sloane Square so be sure not to miss it!

Best time

Morning, Mid-day, Late afternoon
In general, the summer months are the best time to visit Sloane Gardens so you can get the green leaves in your frame. During other months of the year, you can still visit this location and capture the seasonal changes.
The best light in London is on overcast days during the morning, mid-day and late-afternoon.

Field tips

Please respect private property and don't step on the stairs of the houses. Also, watch out for cars in the road.
Try to catch someone walking in the distance to add a sense of movement to your composition. This area isn't overly crowded, but you shouldn't have to wait too long to have someone pass through your frame.
Experiment with different perspectives along the street and see what other compositions you can come up with.
