Couldn't Resist Sharing

I'm pretty good at holding back images which I don't want to have copied right away, but I only lasted a few weeks on this one.  I'm heading back to Bodie twice next week for Milky Way shooting, so I should have plenty of opportunities to pursue new compositions.

Milky Way over well and Miner's Union Hall
We've added Friday, July 25 to our Bodie workshop schedule to squeeze in one more great Milky Way night before the opportunity passes.  Each time we visit Bodie  we try to set up a few new compositions as well as perfect the classics.  With only 3 hours or so of full darkness in the park before we leave at 1 am, time management is one of the biggest challenges, so we try to be efficient as we go from shot to shot.  The Milky Way provides its own unique set of opportunities and challenges, since each month it moves two hours later in its annual cycle.  It's highest in June and July (near the Summer solstice), but the days are longer so dark nighttime shooting before 1 am is shorter.  The orientation of the Milky Way changes as well, and it moves in compass direction SE to SW.  It shows up best on dark nights near the new moon date, so only one, maybe two weekends each month. Next week we'll be there twice, starting July 19 then again July 25, so we'll have similar conditions on the two nights.

The new July 25 workshop is already 1/3 full from people asking me to add a 2014 date… would anyone else care to join us? http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/bodie-night-photography-workshops/

Milky Way over well and Miner’s Union Hall, Bodie California. Each time we visit we try to set up a few new compositions, as well as hit the classics. With only 3 hours or so fo darkness in the park, time management is one of the biggest challenges, so we try to be efficient as we go from shot to shot.
