Mysterious. Haunting. Ephemeral. Alluring. Glowing. All great words to describe the life, light, and power in nighttime photography. When dusk descends and night begins, the world changes in front of your lens and grand, magical, potent worlds emerge. The difficulty is capturing the essence of these visions and getting them firmly fixed inside the camera. From our very first session together, we will dispel several of the technical myths surrounding nighttime photography and get you immediately armed with a strong foundation in how your camera can best capture low light images. This is a course for action and immersion- we will be out in-the-field every week practicing the art of night photography! Each session will begin with both a technical and esthetic lecture (Todd Hido, Hiroshi Sugimoto, David Allee, Eugene Atget, et al.) as we unlock some of the secrets of beautiful night shots. Then, we go out into the night to photograph and practice the techniques. Within the 5-weeks, we will dive into long 'bulb' exposures, high and low ISO shooting, Slow Synch Flash, off camera flash, light painting, white balance effects, intentional motion blur, and more. 'I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.' –Vincent van Gogh
