Fun with Black Light Photography


Adult Enrichment / Fine Arts & Crafts -
Spring 2024

Peer into a world that is usually hidden from the naked eye—the information held in short, high frequency, ultraviolet wavelengths. Using blacklight flashlights and an assortment of UV reactive household objects, explore the physics of the unseen world through high speed and long exposure photography. We’ll learn several advanced photography techniques while engaging with experiments centered around the use of ultraviolet light. BYO camera and lens (details online), most other materials included.

Note: To participate in this class, students must bring:

  • DSLR or SLR camera with manual mode (point & shoot or phone cameras will not suffice)
  • macro lens (between 50mm–60mm, ideal), or any kit lens
  • SD card
