Trains & Tripods November 6, 2010

For decades, capturing powerful locomotive images has been a favorite pastime for photographers. And now, the California State Railroad Museum is proud to host "Trains & Tripods," a two-part program that includes an optional seminar on existing light photography and a photographers-only photo session inside the visually-enticing Museum before it opens to the public for the day. Interested amateur photographers can choose to attend one or both of the activities. Conducted by former Sacramento Bee photographer and Canon USA consultant Dave Henry, the fast-paced and information-packed lighting seminar is scheduled for Friday evening, November 5 from 6:30 - 9 p.m. while the "bring your own tripod" photography opportunity is scheduled for Saturday, November 6 from 7 - 9:30 a.m. Space is limited to 50 participants and advance registration for "Trains & Tripods" is required. The cost is $35 per day or $60 for those interested in both activities. All photographers are required to sign a release of liability and a "not for commercial use" clause.
