We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Fresno .

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

    Title or Location: Coarsegold, CA
    I heard about a launch of the SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket launch from the Vandenberg launch site Oct 2018 and I did not think I would see it from my location in the foothills of Coarsegold, Ca. I decided to go ahead and get my Nikon D7500, 10mm-24mm lens ready just in case. I was happy that I was ready for this shot. The orange dot below the rocket is the booster after jettison headed back to Earth and landed on a barge out in the ocean off the Southern California Coast.

    Title or Location: Downtown Fresno
    Downtown Fresno is a great source for urban landscape photography. While walking near the train tracks I noticed a wall had recently been constructed parallel to the tracks with a rectangular opening. As I got closer I could see the framed image...I could not resist taking the picture. I used my Ricoh GRiiix 26mm (40mm equivalent), set at f/7.1, 1/1600sec, ISO 400.

    Title or Location: At my house in my driveway , Old Fig Garden
    I recently bought a Tesla and noticed the strange reflection coming off the front window when it rained. So I grabbed my camera on Sunday morning and started shooting. Canon R6, 35mm Macro lens, ISO 500, F8 at 1600sec.

    Title or Location: Kings Canyon
    Comet 12/P Pons-Brooks traveling at 40,000mph as it makes its way through our solar system. It'll be another 71 years before Pons-Brooks makes its way through here again.Comets are an interesting challenge because they travel at a different speed and direction from everything around them. Imagine taking a long exposure of two cars traveling different directions and speed. How not to blur the stars or the comet can be a challenge. This was 23x180sec frames stacked.

    Title or Location: Monterey, CA
    I love doing street photography. I generally look for street scenes that tell a story. This particular photo was taken in the tourist area of Monterey. I edited the photo in Lightroom, primarily a little cropping and adjusting white balance, B&W conversion, contrast, etc. I took the photo with my trusty Ricoh griiix, 26mm (40mm equivalent), 1/800 sec, f/6.3, ISO 400.

    Title or Location: Clovis Ca.
    The Rosette Nebula approx 5200 light years from my front yard. A beautiful winter target located in a rich star forming region of space near Orion. This image was captured using a William Optics GT71 telescope and a ZWO ASI294mm Pro monochrome camera. This was a 3 hour exposure. 12x300 second exposures for each color channel. Each color channel was processed independently before combining into the final image.

    Title or Location: Amboseli National Park, Kenya
    This is Craig, a Big Tusker?a term used to describe elephants with exceptionally long tusks. Craig is believed to be the oldest living Big Tusker in Kenya, boasting the longest tusks in the country. At approximately 52 years old, he is a true giant of Amboseli National Park.I was with a group of photographers exploring Amboseli National Park in Kenya when our driver and guide informed us that Craig and his fellow Tusker, Mike, had ventured outside the park and were now in a nearby game prese

    Title or Location: Photo was taken ar the Will Rogers tower in the cultural district of Fort Worth, TX.
    I wanted to shoot the lunar eclipse but at the same time incorporate some quintessential Fort Worth icons into the image for context. I knew I would need to use a very long telephoto to get a large moon but in doing so knew that the rest of the image would need to be some distance from me due to the tunnel vision of the telephoto. I used Photopills and The Photographer?s Ephemeris to plan the shot which was taken with Fuji X system mirrorless equipment.

    Title or Location: Shoreham Power Station, Southwick ,Brighton, United Kingdom
    Using light and shade to capture the beauty in the harshness of urban industrial architecture. Rekindling a love of black and white photography, I took this photograph whilst on a Brighton Photography Group 'Urban Architecture in Black & White Photography' study event led by Tobias Slater-Hunt. Having spent a winter of dark clouds, rain and dull skies, it was an opportunity to make the most of the year's new beautiful March sunshine.
