Many people don't think about nighttime being a good time to do photography since there's a lack of light. However, armed with knowledge about your camera's settings and the properties of light, nighttime photography can be a lot of fun.

In this meetup, you'll learn about the best camera settings for nighttime photography. We'll also explore the kinds of light available to us and how to use that light to make some awesome photos. As always, there are exercises that will help you put your new knowledge to work.

    On the way back from Coburg after having pizza at the pizza place, it was one of those typical early ?false spring? afternoons. I saw the rainbow and liked how it was framed right in the middle of the road, so I snapped the photo.

    Thanks to the previous heatwave we just endured the skies had remained cloud free for one night allowing me to finally capture a great shot of the moon! Taken very late at night with my Canon 90D, I was very excited to edit and post. As Nick frost and Simon pegg once said "Hows that for a slice of fried gold"

    Our travel plans for fall 2020 were scrambled and we took a drive out west instead to the Tetons. Just north of there inside Yellowstone National Park we stopped at this waterfall.

    Title or Location: Ellis Square, Savannah, GA
    I met young Miles at Ellis Square while he was doing some rather gymnastic break dancing. Luckily, for me, I was using my Nikon Z7 which allowed me to switch from raw to jpeg giving me 9 frames per second on motor drive. I was shooting aperture preferred and used f/8 the resulting shutter speed was 1/1600 of a second. 9fps sounds fast but I only had 6 nicely composed shots out of 120 exposures.

    I had spent the better part of the day moving silently through the edges of the chase looking to photograph deer. It was one of those days that seemed perfect on paper: overcast skies that softened the light, barely a breath of wind, and a camera battery at full charge. But nature is nothing if not humbling. The deer remained ghost-like, unseen despite hours of quiet patience and soft steps.By late afternoon my hopes had dimmed so I began the slow walk back to the car. The path wound through
