Street photography encompasses a wide range of genres, and this week we'll be exploring the town at night.

By the end of this event, you will be more familiar with:
- How to adjust camera settings for low light.
- Using slow shutter speeds to get brighter images and create light trails.
- Capturing RAW images.
- Guidelines for shooting other people and their property in the real world.

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.

Photographing Reflections

Photographing Reflections

Saturday 26 October
Dexter Ave Suite - 4:30pm - 2 Hours
Elizabeth Anne Chappell
We will be using natural water reflections and seeking out man-made reflective surfaces in the area to explore how we can use reflections to add depth and intrigue to our images. Reflections can help us to show our subject from an unusual, or from multiple, points of view. We can use reflections to abstract our subject or to make perfect mirror images. We'll even have a look at how we can create our own reflections when there are none around.

    I thought this composition was a gift from God reflecting our state of affairs in this country. Notice we have plenty to eat and so do they in this picture. Instead it seems the bird doesn't partake in the food seems concerned about an inanimate object while claiming the prize. In my view a match to our conspiracy craziness on the web. The bystanding bird is telling him to get on with the eating instead of imagining the worst. It's not a conspiracy bird brain, the food is for us. Nikon D4, 80-

    The North America Nebula derives it's name from it's resemblance to the continental United States, Mexico, and the Gulf of Mexico. The nebula is about 2,600 Light years away in the constellation Cygnus, visible during the summer and fall. This narrowband image is a composite of three wavelengths of light known as Hydrogen-alpha, Sulfur II and Oxygen III, with each wavelength assigned to the R, G, or B color channel to compose a full color image.

    I went on a short photography trip recently. Small country towns, canola, salt lakes and more. The weather was dodgy, which made it even more interesting.

    On this dewy, fresh morning something compelled me to grab my camera and take a picture as sandhill cranes strolling gracefully through the front yard. Harriet pictured here is, as always, accompanied by Ozzie and their offspring of the season. They have been welcomed morning coffee mates for the last 12 years. The picture captures the calm presence and the dancer's restlessness of these beautiful visitors.

    The Great Reno Balloon Race was this weekend. About a dozen balloon are up and aglow before dawn. This beautiful one was my favorite. Most shooting were using auto white balance, cloudy, or 5600K to keep the yellow cast from the flame. I prefer a white balance which retains the true colors of the balloons, especially for this balloon.
