Workshop Overview

Designed for photographers of all skill levels, this hands-on workshop will help you master the art of photographing the night sky while exploring one of Australia's most remote and breathtaking landscapes.

Throughout the workshop, you'll photograph ancient boab trees, dramatic gorges, and the iconic Bungle Bungle Range in Purnululu National Park beneath some of the darkest skies in Australia.
