Location
This photo was taken in the Sheik Shayed Mosque, in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emitares), in December 2017Time
It was shot after sunset. I took some other good pictures there that day, but before leaving, I tried to play a little with wáter and reflections when the sun has gone. This angle took my attention, and I tried the actual photo, with a Good final resultLighting
It's just try and try. Take a photo and have a look: is it Good? Should it have more ligh? May I try in another angle? Then take another… Finally you arrive home with about 100 pictures of the same place with different angles, lights and people walking throw...and you have to make a huge purge! But when the final Good one is ready worth it all.Equipment
NIKON D3300. Gorillapod No flash Only patience and imaginationInspiration
Night pictures, I love them! ...and the Mosque is a wonderful place to compile both of them.Editing
I use Lightroom, but only in small processing, like open shadows or avoid burnt pictures.In my camera bag
Camera, tripod and a lintern to Access Good angle-places during nightsFeedback
It's just practice and compare. Results Will come with time you Will see
