I chose this weeks challenge because it's a technique I've always wanted to attempt, but have not tried as of yet (sorry, I have no sample pictures to post
). Use your entries to inspire us all to try it! Since I couldn't put it better myself, I'm going the route of a previous Challenge poster, and shamelessly borrow the definition from Wikipedia:
"Long exposure photography is a technique that requires a slow shutter speed to capture light and movement."
So let's see your "soft water" shots, creatively blurred model movements, light trails, images of "ghosts", writing with a flashlight, or anything else that took a good, sturdy tripod, and longer than normal exposure to capture!
This competition is all about having a bit of fun. Be creative and give it your best shot! Posting will end at 9pm CST Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008 and Winners will be announced as soon as possible after the contest has closed.
