On the Banks of the Nile River

From the photographer: “During the night of our stay at the Nile Sonesta Hotel, my students and I searched for a shooting location in the hotel garden. The light pollution here is severe, so it is only suitable for shooting star trail photos. I tried several compositions but was not satisfied with them. Later, at the entrance of the hotel lobby, I discovered an interesting composition using a fisheye lens – bending the pillars to create an effect that echoes the star trail.”
