Practical Session – Steel Wool Photography

We will begin the night at Freyberg Pool parking area at 1745.
If you arrive late or can’t find us, please message WPS directly (via social media) or our host Bronwyn at 0221229801.

Once we go over safety and best practices for steel wool photography, you will be free to work in small groups to have a go in the nearby area. We will have tools for light painting available as well

Please bring your camera, tripod, and a remote or familiarity with your camera self-timer, long exposure such as 30 sec, and exposure control.

You can also bring a steel whisk and a short piece of rope to spin it with and a lighter. We will provide steel wool but the more items you can provide, the more pictures you will be able to get.

Please be aware of risk of flying very hot embers so a thick coat and a hat is recommended, as are safety glasses and gloves. Dark colours and natural materials preferred. Head torches with red lights are also recommended to help maintain night vision.
