Spiral Staircase Look Down along Garden Road

The featured image is a look down of a spiral staircase along Garden Road. The bottom of it places you at the Queensway and Murray Road intersection. It’s easy to navigate to via the GPS coordinate. By MTR: - Closest MTR Station: Central (Island Line & Tsuen Wan Line) - Take exit “J2” - You'll arrive at Charter Garden, walk through the Garden towards the Bank of China Building - Once you reach the road, look left and you'll see the spiral staircase

The spiral staircase is great to photograph any month.

By visiting during the day you’ll have sufficient light to use a fast shutter speed to capture the structure’s detail. Cloudy days are also nice since you can avoid the harsh light.

By using a wide-angle lens you can more fully frame the spiral staircase. My image was shot with a phone!

For a look down perspective you’ll have to reach your hands out so the camera is directly above the stairs — don’t drop it! Have your camera strap around you and hold your camera tight.

Experiment with different angles and be patient for the right moment to pass into your frame.

Stroll through the Charter Garden to enjoy its greenery and various art exhibits.
