What is a Photography Park?

It’s simple — it’s whatever we make it. There isn’t a park dedicated to photography so we will literally be creating the first one. But to more directly answer the question, let’s start with the most basic of items. The best outdoor photographs are made when the light is best. Great light makes for great photography. When is the light best? Around sunrise and sunset. When are most parks open? Certainly not for sunrise. And many aren’t open for sunset. This is the first need outdoor photographers have that isn’t being met. Access at the times they need to be there.
