Spots to Try

  • West Street side for long reflections.
  • Plaza edges for geometry and drifting clouds.
  • Clear evenings: watch for moon‑rise alignments.

Street‑Level Tips

  • Go a bit wider to capture tapering facets.
  • Wait for pedestrians to add scale without clutter.

Tip: Minimalist compositions shine here — lines, planes, and light.
