Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Late afternoon
All months are great to photograph this green façade.
Visit mid-day through late-afternoon when the light is harshest and you can capture the façade’s vibrant colours.

Field tips

I just used my iPhone, but by using a wide-angle lens you’ll be able to capture more height and width of the façade.
Pay attention to the balance of your shot. If you center yourself correctly you’ll frame the façade’s perfect symmetry.
Explore around! You’ll notice similar architecture (different coloured) on the government building next door.
Be patient and wait for something interesting to pass along into your frame.
