    Watching this as I sit in my Air BnB in London 😂

  2. @Zocral on October 29, 2024 at 9:09 pm

    Great video and tips. I love your enthusiasm.

  3. @JaganRana on October 29, 2024 at 9:11 pm

    Thanks. Watched couple of your videos and now subscribed. Awesome knowledge share.

  4. @robstein67 on October 29, 2024 at 9:13 pm

    Nothing like a light rainy night in London…. Nice video and thoughts….

  5. @paulburwood8231 on October 29, 2024 at 9:21 pm

    Excellent video. Interested in your view as to when converging verticals work and don’t work.

  6. @linkedinfred on October 29, 2024 at 9:21 pm

    Thanks. Great content and really useful. Looking forward to trying out my 8-16mm Ultra wide in London during the blue hour.

  7. @ricardoantunesdeazevedo8304 on October 29, 2024 at 9:24 pm

    Sorry, but I did not like the video. Very little useful information and the photos shown, the majority are quite boring and flat.

  8. @valerieb1986 on October 29, 2024 at 9:24 pm

    What does layering it up mean please?

  9. @danielle921 on October 29, 2024 at 9:30 pm

    This video gave me a lot of inspiration and new ideas. Thank you so much!

  10. @jordanhaleigh4598 on October 29, 2024 at 9:33 pm

    Brilliant!!! ❤

    Gareth – humungous thanks for this tutorial; I am planning another London trip quite soon and hadn’t thought about the ‘blue hour’ which was fascinating. Absolutely love all your tutorials – you are the only person who makes it all make sense to me! Thank you, thank you.

  12. @Anxyte on October 29, 2024 at 9:37 pm

    Nice

  13. @Kdavi2612 on October 29, 2024 at 9:38 pm

    Would you be able to advise on how best to shoot in the city at night to capture the entire cityscape with all the lights and also the highway that I have nearby? I live 34 stories up on the top of the building and downtown San Antonio, and I really want to capture the magic of all the lights from the highway with all the traffic, and all the colorful lights in the city. Would love if you could share your thoughts on how best to achieve this? I have a canon 70 and also a like a Q2, which more than likely is not the right one to use for this scenario. Also, could you recommend the best wide angle lens for me to get?camera settings everything thank you so much!

    Cool video

  15. @intrinsicimagery on October 29, 2024 at 9:42 pm

    Look for neon!

  16. @PictureSizeDoesMatter on October 29, 2024 at 9:42 pm

    Very helpful and insightful video. Great presentation. Thank you.

  17. @Pieter2360 on October 29, 2024 at 9:44 pm

    Sure, golden hour and blue hour are great, but I think cityscapes also lend themselves perfectly for mid-day shooting as the harsh light can create really nice shadows in these kinds of environments.

  18. @jaapkamstra9343 on October 29, 2024 at 9:45 pm

    Hey man! Great video! You got another sub 🙂

  19. @johnscratchley3288 on October 29, 2024 at 9:47 pm

    A very useful video with some wonderful images as examples.👍

  20. @dovidell on October 29, 2024 at 9:49 pm

    A nice refresher video to inspire – if it wasn’t for my "rickety" knees , I’d get down for the low angle shots far more often !!!

  21. @rubencarlo4626 on October 29, 2024 at 9:50 pm

    Bro you are talented 👏👏👏👏

  22. @MrAlanearle on October 29, 2024 at 9:55 pm
