Introduction to Night Photography


Dallas Center for Photography

Introduction to Night Photography returns as a three-class series that includes online instruction, on-location shooting and an online image review.

Have you admired those luscious, dusk photos of cities with glowing, undulating trails of traffic and clouds that seem to be racing across the sky? Or the delicate tones of the fading light in a scenic landscape, or shadowy pedestrians that look like a swarm of bees in motion? Those photos require a little bit of skill, a tripod and patience. Shooting after the sun goes down is one of the most rewarding ways to spend time with your camera.

The three-class series will start with an online class via Zoom where the instructor will cover long exposure photographs, discuss how they were done and go through the technical and creative process of setting up a shot. For the second class, we will meet in-person outdoors where we’ll position our tripods, get our exposures roughed in and make some interesting photos.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  • Using Google maps to do some virtual scouting
  • How to choose gear and accessories for long exposure photography
  • How to save time in the field by quickly roughing in your exposure
  • White balance considerations
  • The interplay between time, motion and blur
  • Lens selection and setup
  • Filters: when you might need them and when you should take them off
  • How ISO figures in to night photography
