Night Photography is the art of capturing images in low-light conditions, typically after sunset and before sunrise. It emphasizes the beauty of darkness illuminated by artificial or natural light sources, such as streetlights, neon signs, the moon, or stars. This style often requires longer exposures, wider apertures, and higher ISO settings to reveal details hidden to the naked eye.

Night photography creates dramatic, atmospheric visuals with glowing cityscapes, star trails, light painting, or moody silhouettes. It blends technical precision with creative experimentation, often producing striking contrasts between shadows and highlights. Patience, stability (using a tripod), and an understanding of how light behaves in darkness are key to mastering this genre.
