Photowalk Riverwalk East
Details
Join us for a scenic evening photowalk tracing the mouth of the Miami River, along the scenic riverwalk out to Biscayne Bay and finishing at the newly revitalized Bayfront Park Water Fountain!
Timed specifically for mid-November light, our meetup lets us capture the entire transition of evening light in a compact, ~1-mile waterfront route:
Golden Hour (4:15 PM – 5:15 PM): Warm afternoon sunlight bouncing off the glass skyscrapers of Brickell, dramatic geometry beneath the Brickell Avenue drawbridge, and superyachts docked along the Kimpton EPIC boardwalk.
Sunset (5:15 PM – 5:45 PM): Expansive views opening up to Biscayne Bay, PortMiami, and Brickell Key as the sky turns pastel pink and orange behind the Downtown skyline.
Blue Hour & City Lights (5:45 PM – 6:15 PM): Long-exposure water motion, glowing city reflections, and the illuminated water jets at the Bayfront Park Fountain.
All skill levels and camera types are welcome! Whether you shoot with a mirrorless camera, DSLR, film camera, compact point-and-shoot, or smartphone, you'll find plenty of great compositions along the water.
4:00 PM – 4:15 PM: Meet & Greet just south of the Riverwalk Metromover Station (down at the ground/waterfront promenade level). Please arrive on time—we will head east along the Riverwalk at 4:15 PM sharp!
We'll send updates on the Whatsapp chat as we go along. Once the walk is complete, if some people are up for it, we can go for food 🍕
