Taking photographs of Architecture or a Location such as a diner or shop is an excellent way to express how you feel about that place. Be aware of such things as lighting and viewpoint. Time of day is also a major factor. You may choose to shoot at dawn, noon, in the evening, dusk or after dark. The light you choose can really add drama, emphasis and mood to your photos. Make sure to crop the image within your viewfinder. Plan your composition. Take pictures from different angles and perspectives. Take wide angles shots that show the whole building as well as close ups. You need 5 buildings.
