Key points for photography
The key to taking this photo is not just to focus on the Cosmo Clock 21, but to include the surrounding buildings, streets, and city lights in the frame to create a night view that truly captures the essence of Yokohama. Shooting from a slightly distant vantage point makes it easier to balance the size of the giant Ferris wheel with the cityscape.
