August 2019 Nightscape Photography Portfolio
A River of Stars - by Joe Cali



This portfolio was captured across three beautiful clear nights. On August 23rd and 24th, I was out scouting and test shooting at locations for an event I ran for Photoaccess called "Murrumbidgee Midnight Madness." On August 31st, I ran the event for a small group of competent daytime photographers who were novice nightscapers. Once I got them going, I also captured a few images myself.
