long exposure

This type of  photo Is called Long-exposure.


There are not that many steps you have to take but some of the steps I took
-First set the camera up on a tripod 
-find a busy street
-i got a high angle and angled towards traffic
-i put the Fstop at 16
- shutter speed to Bulb
and then i held down the shutter for 9+ seconds 
Traffic head light and tail light trails give a stunning effect and are a great way to get acquainted with long exposure times. Select a busy road that has lots of traffic at night. Use a sturdy tripod and position the camera so that it has an overview of the area. Use a small aperture of f/16 or smaller for a greater depth of field, making most of the image in focus. The longer the exposure, the more lines will appear and the longer they will look.

  2. I really like this shot. I like how you got up at a higher angle to shoot, it gives the image some depth. I like how you shot in a place where there were buildings intead of just the car lights, although I do think that the buildings came out a little over exposed, and the blobs of trees are distracting. Other than that, this is an overall good shot!
