German photographer Jakob Wagner has photographed many cities around the world at night. He scouts each city location for a perfect vantage point before setting up his tripod and capturing long-exposure photos of the cityscape.
“At 16 I began to realize that I wanted to be a photographer. During a long period of experimenting I found that with long exposure at night, things you can not see with the naked eye. could be visualized. That fascinated me and I started my Nightscapes series.”
He says: “I think the most important thing is to be in the right spot at the right time. I was lucky to work as an assistant for a few renowned photographers while they were working all around the globe.”
He plans to start a new series of aerial photographs, shot from a hot air balloon: “At the moment I’m doing the post production of a new series. It will be a collection of very different aerial shots from all over the world.”
