Some images from our last night scene photography class
Night scene photography is a part of our eight week photography program. There are many subjects suitable for night photography, but do you know how to set your camera for the best results?
In our Digital Camera Photography Bootcamp we cover almost everything related to photography from beginner to intermediate levels. Topics such as camera controls, settings and composition are a few examples. One of the most challenging types of photography is Night Scene photography, which is why we include it in our Bootcamp lineup.
Although night scene photography has many things in common with regular photography, there are a few important differences and one of the most challenging is understanding exposure.
Here are some images which were taken during our last Night Scene Photography workshop, enjoy!

Hello Ted,
Thank you again, The night scene class was amazing! There is always so much to learn. I can’t wait to learn and grow from attending your classes.
As you had asked I have attached some pictures from tonight! I left most original but I have changed some to almost B & W as I wanted to see what they looked like as well. Experimenting I guess. Any feed back on what I should try would be much appreciated.
Here are some of the images that she had sent to us:
