Scouting Techniques for National Parks

National Parks offer vast landscapes, dynamic vistas and views that are worthy of hanging on gallery walls. Capturing those scenic areas in a photo that represents what you experience in person takes planning and preparation. Knowing what opportunities you have in each park at what time of year is a great start to capturing incredible images. In this class you’ll learn:

• National Park rules and regulations- when to get a permit and how to obtain one
  
• Scouting tips for night shooting, how to scout and prep your shoot before sunset
  
• Safety tips for yourself and your gear when shooting in remote locations at night
