October 2018 Meeting

Darkness lends itself to a completely new set of photographic opportunities. City streets come alive at night, as do country fairs and fireworks displays. But even quiet and lonely places—cemeteries, back alleys, and moon-lit shorelines—can surprise you with what they have to offer. At night you will need to ensure that you capture sufficient light by increasing the length of your exposure, by adding light (flash or light painting), or by increasing the sensitivity (ISO) of your sensor. But to maintain the feeling of darkness, be careful not to let a too-long exposure turn your scene into daytime. Wherever you may be headed, grab your tripod and a friend (for assistance, company, and safety) and have fun shooting in the dark.
