This week’s theme: Light Up the Night

Long exposures, light trails, stars, and a playground after dark… what could possibly go wrong?

This week is all about slowing things down and getting creative. Bring your tripod if you’ve got one, your camera, your bike, and your imagination. Whether you’re painting with light, chasing star shots, or experimenting with long exposures, there’ll be plenty of opportunities to try something different.

The playground isn’t just for kids—it makes an awesome backdrop for creative lighting, silhouettes, and unique compositions. Add a motorcycle into the mix, and you’ve got the recipe for some seriously cool photos.

As always, this isn’t a professional shoot. No money changing hands, no pressure to know what you’re doing, and no expectations. Just riders, photographers, people wanting to learn, and a couple of hours escaping reality together.

If you’ve never tried long exposure or light painting before, don’t stress. There’ll be plenty of people happy to share tips and help you get started.

Photographers — if you’ve got a hidden Canberra location that deserves some attention, send me a DM. We change locations each week and are always looking for the next great spot.

Bring a torch, bring a tripod, and let’s see what we can create after the sun goes down.
