Night Photography Field Trip - Alki Beach Park

Field trip: Night Photography

Night Photography Field Trip - Alki Beach Park

Field trips to practice. Topics will be how to take photos of the Seattle Great Wheel, light painting, star trails and full moon photos.

  • Easy
  • For Beginners (Getting Started Series)

Meet at Luna Park (on Alki) at 4:00pm.

The full moon is supposed to start rising at 5:53pm. In January, it will rise over the Olympic Mountains to the west.

Prior to the moon rise, we should be able to get some nice sunset photos, provided the weather is nice. Sunset is at 4:40pm.

This field trip will be contingent on the weather - if there are lots of clouds, we won't really be able to see the moon and it would be a waste of time. As the date comes closer, you will be notified if we're a go or not.
