Start time 6:30 AM. Gates open around 6:30 depending on the Ranger on duty.
Subject: Lotus blossoms, wildlife, insect macro, etc.
What to bring: Tripod helps, your choice of lenses from macro to wide angle to tele, diffusers and reflectors (if you have them), polarizing/neutral density filters, good place to play with flash techniques. Bug repellant and rain gear as needed. Water and snacks.
Please be sure anything left in the car is out of sight and covered.
Best light is usually first thing and unless cloudy, things get a little bright by 10-10:30.
