Skytree's nightly lights often follow named themes (e.g., Iki, Miyabi) and switch palettes for events.
Core Themes
| Theme | Palette | Feel |
|---|---|---|
| Iki | Cool blues | Elegant, modern |
| Miyabi | Warm purples | Classical, refined |
| Seasonal | Reds/greens, pastels | Holidays and events |
Occasional one-night palettes mark sports wins or cultural events. Check calendars day-of.
Best Angles for Light-Ups
- Riverbanks for mirror-like reflections.
- Bridges for rails as leading lines.
- Deck interiors for city glow plus lit tower body.
Blue Hour Advantage
Tower detail remains visible while lights pop.
Exposure Recipes
River reflection: ISO 100, f/8, 10–20s
Bridge handheld: ISO 800, f/2.8–4, 1/30–1/60s
Deck interior: ISO 400–800, f/4–5.6, 1/10–1/20s (brace)
White Balance
Auto works, but try cooler presets to keep blues clean; avoid overly warm shifts that muddy purples.
