Making the shot – Conway Ranch and Milky Way
As part of my “Expanding Your Creativity – Mono Lake” workshop, I take clients for a night photography session at Conway Ranch. The ranch was owned by early settlers of the region and is now protected by a conservation easement and management plan from Mono County, Eastern Sierra Land Trust, Caltrans, California Department of Parks and Recreation, and the National Fish & Wildlife Foundation.
The first time I came to this location to photograph was in the fall a few years ago during the day. I thought it would really cool at night with the stars behind. When I checked the app, Photo Pills, I saw that I could stand on the west side and look east, or stand on the east side of the house and look west...
