Learn the basics of using your camera to capture amazing celestial portraits of the desert night sky. After a few hours of classroom instruction by Dennis Mammana, an astronomer and professional photographer/instructor (DennisMammana.com) and a dinner break (several good restaurants are nearby), you'll return to the Visitor Center where Dennis will help you practice shooting the heavens. Who knows? Maybe your efforts will yield a winning image to .jpg)

Students should bring a camera (digital or film) that can be adjusted manually and can take time exposures, a tripod, a remote control or cable release, their camera user manual, and a flashlight with a red lens or covered with red cellophane. Please have a good working knowledge of your equipment.
