Star Trails Light Painting

 

Nocturnal Creativity

Creative photography after dark is a mystery to many. We’ve figured it out! Learn how to photograph stars moving romantically in the sky. See how to creatively build a scene and ad lighting for fun. You’ll make picture that are truly stellar! Join the Space Cowboys to learn the secrets of “how to” and enjoy a night of fun creative “after dark” photography.

 

“How To” Class Friday, March 16, 2012. 7-9pm 

Learn the equipment requirements, proven tips and useful techniques needed to make amazing nocturnal creations. We’ll go over “what you need,” “how to work it” and set up the perfect shot. Star trails require a choice of “very long exposures” or “sandwiching many long exposures” to create stunning swirl of stars. Light painting requires a digital SLR camera with “bulb” setting, sturdy tripod, lockable remote release and a spark of imagination. Bring your camera, tripod and remote to learn “what to do” and practice for the field shoot or plan a picture of your own.
