Shoot smarter, walk less

The common mistake is chasing isolated "top spots" across the map. Better approach: build a route where each shot leads naturally to the next.

Suggested light map

Light window	Best subjects
Morning	clean lines, architecture fronts
Afternoon	texture in brick and water
Blue hour	reflections, bridge silhouettes

Shot checklist

Wide establishing frame
Medium context frame
One close detail
One human-scale moment

Bottom line

Good city photography is sequencing, not speed.
