Night
The discipline
Night photography here means the built world after dark: sodium and LED, shop glass, wet asphalt, the hour when streets compose themselves. It is a workshop about scarce light as a palette — long exposures, high ISO discipline, and colour temperature as a creative decision rather than a correction.
Walks run from blue hour past midnight, with a processing morning to make the files answer for themselves.
Departures
Field notes
Expose for the highlights; the night is allowed to be dark.
Rain doubles every light source. Go out in it.
Blue hour is fifteen honest minutes. Be set up in ten.
Questions, answered
Tripod or handheld?
Both, deliberately: tripod discipline for architecture and light trails, stabilised handheld for the street's faster propositions.
How late do sessions run?
Most end by 01:00. Start times shift with civil twilight, so summer dates run later than winter ones.
Is this the same as astrophotography?
No — this is the lit world. For dark skies, see the astrophotography workshops; the two pair well a season apart.
