I’m looking forward to tomorrows presentation to the NIH Camera Club on Black Light Photography. The presentation begins at 7 PM and will be in the Community Room at the Five Star Premier Residence 8100 Connecticut Avenue Chevy Chase, MD 20815. I hope to see you there!
As always, here’s a copy of the presentation converted to black and white so you can print it without using a ton of ink or toner.
On March 12th I’ll be doing a educational session on basic photography. This presentation will focus on photography fundamentals, particularly on capture basics.
I’ll discuss basic equipment choices and basic capture techniques. This will include a discussion of available camera types, lenses and accessories. I’ll also discuss the basics of image exposure including aperture, shutter speed and the mysterious ISO.
While this presentation is geared toward novice’s photographers, it will also help reinforce the basics and suggestion good techniques for those who already know their way around the camera.
Presented a Digital Development Fundamentals lecture at McLean Camera club on 2/13. A very nice group of folks and a good club to visit especially if you are in the area. As promised, here’s a copy of the presentation, hope you will find it useful.
Had a wonderful time doing a presentation for Gaithersburg Camera Club this week. Lots of nice people taking images in black light with florescent colors. Hope you all got some good shots and had a good time. As promised, here’s a copy of the presentation.
On Monday March 12th, Scott Musson will share his extensive experience with Black Light photography. The evening will start with a lecture describing the technique and the tools, followed by an opportunity to try some black light photography yourself..
The lecture will demonstrate several techniques that Scott has used to create award winning photographs using Black Lights and ordinary items like a Slinky. Black Lights make fluorescent colors “glow” and create an unusual effect that forces you to look at things in a whole new way.
Black Light photography is low-light photography so remember to bring a tripod in addition to your camera. Faster ISOs are not efficient for reducing the shutter speeds with Black Light photography so camera support is critical.
Items to bring if you would like to try black light photography
Camera (with charged battery and memory card)
Macro or Close Focusing Lens
Tripod
Other useful items:
Cable release
Diopters or extension tubes
Imagination
We look forward to a fun and educational evening that we hope will inspire you to try this unique lighting technique on your own.
