The undeniable road to the material world! This is the most unique Louis Vuitton in Singapore, and probably coolest across the world. It’s particularly beautiful in the evening when this glass architectural gem is illuminated.

You can photograph the Louis Vuitton storefront all months of the year.
The Louis Vuitton storefront is perfectly illuminated in the evenings. It’s also nice to photograph just after sunset, commonly known as the blue hour, when the sky has a bluish tint. Visit on a weekday to avoid the crowd.
Field tips
I used a tripod, shot at eye-level and used a wide-angle lens (16mm) to fit the entire composition into my camera frame.
Be patient as people may walk into your view (you are standing in front of the entrance, after all!)
Correctly exposing this composition is tricky because of the diversified range of lighting (buildings, walkway, and storefront). I used a tripod, shot the same image at three different exposures and blended them in post-processing. This is called bracketing.
