This workshop focuses on still photography, rather than timelapse. 

Class size limited to 3.

WORKSHOP INCLUDES

  • Lodging/Breakfast in Joshua Tree, California
  • Training on Astro-Photography Techniques and post-processing 
  • Training on Landscape Photography Techniques
  • Optimal Camera Setup, including lens selection 
  • Daily/Nightly shooting sessions in the park and surrounding areas.
  • Astro Theory and optimal shutter speed / aperture selection
  • Training on optimal RAW settings and processing

WHATS REQUIRED

Our workshops require that you have a DLSR (or Mirrorless!) camera which allows for manual settings of Aperture, Exposure duration and ISO. The camera should support interchangeable lenses - FAST (2.8F or faster) and WIDE (20MM or wider, 14MM is preferable) are best for nighttime photography (lenses can be rented on-line). You will also need a tripod and an Intervalometer (or a camera which supports Intervalometer functions natively in the camera). You will also need to bring a laptop (for processing your sequences). Once you've registered I will send you a list of download instructions for the software which is used in the workshop.
