Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Morning, Mid-day, Late afternoon
These backless stands are great to photograph all months of the year.
If you’re photographing the left sections of the stands you’ll want to visit in the morning as to avoid the awning blocking the sun. If you’re photographing the right sections of the stands, mid-day through late-afternoon is best. The stadium gets maintenance every Wednesday so don’t visit then.

Field tips

Try balancing your composition so the stadium seat lines are straight and horizontal.
If you’re photographing a model experiment with different poses at different places on the stands. I chose to position mine in a way that draws the viewers eyes to the center.
Explore the different seating sections! They vary in colour.
