With over fifty years photography experience the info on equipment, the exposure triangle, etc. was very "old hat". However, lately I have taken an interest in night sky photography. There is not much in this course that couldn't be picked up on Youtube videos on the subject. Note to author - besides the rule of thirds, there is the rule of evens and odds. His photo of the night sky with the four trees in silhouette would be improved if the tiny fourth tree is removed in Photoshop. As a person I enjoyed listening to him.

This is the second course I've taken with this instructor and I'm already taking my night photography skills up exponentially. This guy also works really hard to put his courses together and doesn't just copy and paste lectures which I've seen other people do.
