Northern Night Sky Photo Workshop

Cook County, Minnesota on the north shore of Lake Superior is 92% public and undeveloped land. With a summer population of about 10,000 people mainly living near the shore of Lake Superior, there isn’t much in the way of light pollution. On the Bortle night sky darkness scale Cook County’s skies rank 2 to 3 (with 1 being the darkest and 9 the brightest). Parts of the county even reach a Bortle rank of 1. When it’s dark out, the stars fill the sky, the Milky Way is bright and because of our proximity to the magnetic north pole, we get northern lights more often than other areas at the same latitude. July generally has clear nights or nights with lightning and thunderstorms, and this night photography workshop takes advantage of those clear summer nights. For five days, we’ll work on capturing night images and learning how to process them.

Cost: $999 ($500 nonrefundable deposit due on registration. Final payment is due 90 days before the workshop)

This event is in cooperation with and under a Special Use Permit from U.S. Forest Service, Gunflint Ranger District.
