Night Photography is Topic of June 12 Meeting
Night photography is the art of capturing images during the time between dusk and dawn, often utilizing artificial light sources and long exposures to capture enough light to record an image. This low-light form of photography allows for unique creative effects and reveals a different side of scenes than during the day. Russell Graves will provide information such as camera settings, techniques, and equipment used for capturing night images, along with some useful editing tips. In the media, Russell's been called a rural renaissance man, recognized as one of the top photographers in Texas, and praised by editors, art directors, and audiences alike for his ability to connect people and places through his written, spoken, and photographic stories. Russell is a photography coach with an extensive portfolio. You can check out his work here.
