Durham House
Clear night skies after a heavy downpour in Bodie that cleared much of the wildfire smoke that was in the air. This year for our workshops we've modified our recommended shooting technique, post-processing workflow, and on this night I was introducing new lighting setups.
While added light does reduce noise where the light strikes (there is a higher signal to noise ratio), it produces a "light polluted" look; the lighting itself risks starting to distract from the subject and composition.
