NOTE: This Meetup is for first time attendees. Please do not RSVP if you attended either of the past two Introduction To Night Photography events.
Interested in shooting after dark, but aren’t sure how to begin? Want to expand your photographic horizons? Join us for an informative evening and hands-on night shoot at Balboa Park.
Learn the basics in a short information sharing session and then put them into practice.
NOTE: A Tripod is required for this event. You must also understand the operation of your camera including how to individually adjust shutter speed, aperture and ISO and how to use the Self-Timer Delay if you do not have a remote shutter release.
We will meet at 6:00 PM on the steps of the Museum of Us (formerly, the Museum of Man) for an approximate 30-minute information sharing session. We will then walk along El Prado and practice night shots on the many well lit buildings and the city lights. Sunset is at 6:25 PM.
Parking At Balboa Park: There are multiple free parking lots in the park. The nearest ones to the Museum of Us are behind the Alcazar Gardens, behind the Spreckels Organ Pavilion, or behind the Fleet Science Center.
What to bring: Any adjustable camera, medium range zoom (24-70mm, 24-105mm, 24-85mm, etc.) and a TRIPOD. If you have one, bring a remote shutter release. Walking shoes are suggested.
Contact Info: Call Larry at 619-890-9206 if you're lost or have a question.
