Admit one 10·10 Sat · 3:00 PM New people, same passion

Why 3 PM

Chasing the golden hour

We meet early, with daylight to walk the grounds and scout our frames. Then the sun drops behind Jaipur, the sandstone turns gold, and after sunset the museum lights up against a deep blue sky. These times are worked out for Albert Hall on 10 October.

Golden hourWarm, low light on the facade. Shoot the domes against the sky and let the arches throw long shadows.

SunsetTurn around. Silhouettes of the domes, the lamps and the pigeons against an orange sky.

Blue hourThe museum lights come on while the sky is still blue. Hold steady, or find something to lean on.

How the evening goes

One walk, three lights

No race and no pressure. We walk around Albert Hall together as the light changes, and you shoot whatever catches your eye.

The place

1876

Foundation stone laid during the Prince of Wales's visit to Jaipur.

1887

Opens as a public museum.

Indo-Saracenic

Domes, chhatris, jharokhas and arches in carved stone.

After dark

Lit up in the evenings, the building's best-known look.
