Shooting at night is like being on another planet. Usually it’s just you and the silence of the evening. Traffic has died down and most folks are asleep. It can be a peaceful experience. It’s also a lot cooler at night, and that’s a big bonus around this area.
As someone that rarely uses artificial or “staged” lighting, I love finding random and unique scenes that are already lit up in interesting ways. Many photos come from me pulling off the side of the road and just walking around a place that has caught my eye. If you’re a nightowl, or you want a different photography experience, get out there after sunset.
