When the sun goes down, landscapes take on entirely new personalities. The moon and stars light the sky and transform the landscape below, creating image-making possibilities that are not found in the daytime. In this course, photographer, author, and educator Sean Duggan takes a nocturnal road trip to illuminate the techniques involved in capturing the nighttime landscape. Filmed on location along the surreal shoreline of the Salton Sea and in the Anza-Borrego Desert, the course offers real-world examples and insights into a professional landscape photographer's thought process and composition techniques.

Topics include:

* Finding compositions

* Exposing and focusing at night

* Creating an image with reflections

* Using long exposures to blur motion

* Painting with light

* Shooting with a full moon
