Montana Rail Link

Noctography

Photography at night using only ambient light is whole new world. We’ll explore how to obtain crisp, clear images under the cover of night in and around the Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho rail scene.

Note: These and other workshops are pending completion of curriculum, program, schedule, and legalities. Additional workshops focusing on the technical side of photography such as a more comprehensive understanding of your camera and gear as well as post-processing will be offered as well. To receive updates on these workshops and when they will become available, hit the “learn more” and we’ll keep you in the loop. I look forward to sharing my experience with you.
