That was today. Shwink shows you the light for any date, any spot, plus everything else around your shoot.
Get ShwinkWhy shoot here
Narrow cobbled streets lined with brightly painted houses in jewel tones. The color palette is extraordinary. Shoot tight on facades and doorways for pattern work. Shadows and light play sharp against the painted walls. The neighbourhood has texture and history.
Shooting tip
Morning light is best. Shadows are shorter and cleaner. Shoot details first, then pull back for context. The coloured houses work best with negative space.
