Photo tips: Photographing architecture

Photographing architecture is more demanding than you think. But with our tips you can easily take better photos of architecture. We collected some videos:

Avoid falling lines

Depending on the shooting angle or lens distortion, buildings in photos appear to tilt backwards. This can be avoided, for example, by photographing absolutely parallel to the ground, i.e. holding the camera straight, with a so-called tilt shift lens or by correcting it afterwards with software. Further information can be found here and here.

Photographing architecture with long time exposure

The time should be taken: With long exposures - in our example even during the day - you can impressively set buildings in scene.

Photographing architecture - many practical tips

From the tilt shift lens at the top to the use of polarization filters and conscious line management in photos, this video offers many practical tips for various applications.
