The challenge of most photographers is to find new locations to capture beautiful, extraordinary and unique photos. Especially around the end of the year when many landmarks and places are impressively decorated to celebrate New Year. It is a great opportunity for photographers to capture the moment with their cameras.
Better still, this year, whether as an amateur or a professional photographer, you can win 100,000 baht for your photos.
The rules are simple. Take a selfie or landscape photo with the 60-storey Magnolias Ratchadamri Boulevard (MRB) at the heart of Ratchaprasong Square. The building is designed with a sophisticated and iconic architecture inspired by the delicate petals of magnolia flowers. Moreover, it provides a screen for the first 3D projection mapping show in Thailand.
The following eight spots are recommended for the photoshoot of Magnolias Ratchadamri Boulevard (MRB):
Central World: Despite a crowd, props and foreground provided by the shopping mall enable you to get wonderful photos from various perspectives.
Skywalk Ratchaprasong: To avoid the complications of low-angle shots, take the photo of at the centre of Ratchaprasong from the Skywalk. Make the skytrain tracks the leading line.
Skywalk from BTS Chidlom to Amarin and Grand Hyatt Arawan: The best spot for night time photos.
Amarin Tower’s 7th Floor Parking Lot: Capture the 3D projection mapping over the Magnolias Building without getting bumped by a crowd. Nice place for your selfies too.
The Footbridge between Gaysorn Plaza and Central World: Light trail photographers will love this spot where car tail- and head-lights and the skytrain meet the 3D projection mapping over Magnolias Ratchadamri Boulevard.
Footbridge linking BTS Siam Skywalk and Wat Pathum temple (Next to MK): Just a minute from BTS Siam, you can see the Magnolias Ratchadamri Boulevard standing tall amid the concrete jungle. Distant photos might also work.
Heaven Bangkok Restaurant, Zen, Central World 19th Floor: You can even make 100,000 just by taking a pic over a meal. This is a great spot for high-angle shots and a panoramic view of Ratchaprasong square.
Red Sky Restaurant, 55th floor, Centara Grand Hotel: This spot is simply breathtaking. From the roof top restaurant, you can capture a mind-blowing bird’s eye view of Ratchaprasong square and the Magnolias.
