Shooting at night can be one of the most rewarding things in film photography. The darkness can allow you to simplify your vision, but given all the challenges you need to make sure your technique is on point. In this class, you will learn the techniques to make shooting in available darkness a breeze, so you're able to focus all your energy on the creative side. Join LSDR’s Chris Davis(chrisdavisphoto.com) who has spent years shooting both day and night long exposures while experimenting with the limitations of film. You’ll learn about equipment choices, exposures, depth of field, reciprocity, what films to use, color temperatures, using filters for long exposures during the day, and other techniques that allow you to get what you want out of any nighttime(or daytime) scene! As always, the focus will be on letting the creative side guide the technical choices allowing your vision to come through.

Class Requirements: A camera that has a manual mode that allows you to control the shutter speed and aperture, a sturdy tripod and a cable release for your camera.
