Urban Nightscapes: Creating Magical Long Exposures Under Streetlight (CC)

Whether you’re a resident or a visitor, dark skies can be few and far between when you’re in a city. However, there are still plenty of long exposure opportunities!

In this talk Gabe Biderman will explore the creative possibilities of urban photography. He will cover:

• gear requirements

• finding the best vantage points for epic cityscapes

• amplifying how the city moves

• exposure considerations

• urban star trails

• adding the human element

• working with film

• and more…

Gabe loves the energy and movement of a city once the sun goes down, from the bright lights to the quieter places in parks and backyards in the neighborhood. Night photography should not be explored only under the stars. The city moves—let’s seize it!
