Photography Tips

Go to Granada in winter, when crowds are less and days are shorter. Buy general admission ticket online in advance for about $20, and book your visit to Nasri Palace in the afternoon for the best light. By about 3pm, many tourists are not around anymore and with some patience you can get good shots. I used an Olympus OM-1 to get this shot with a 12mm lens and the Live ND function that gave me a long exposure handheld just above the water. You may need a tripod.
