Long Shutter Speed

The first three photos here were done in my room this morning with the lights off and using a seven second shutter speed. This in-camera image manipulation opens all sorts of possibilities around creating a photo with "special" content. If you are all caught up with class assignments, try this... it's something else to add to your portfolio and can be a lot of fun!




You'll notice that with each pose I stood more and more still and so became more and more "solid". The last one was done in the darkroom (the TV studio would do) with the same seven second exposure.

  1. Those are so cool! I like the last one best because the light shows up more.

  2. I really like the last one in the TV studio! It shows up so well and also the shadows against you and the background are kinda cool.

  3. Whoa! That is really neat. I like how you changed how still you stood for each photograph. It was interesting to see the difference it can make! Very cool, I will definitely give this a try.

  4. I love the last photo. The way the background is dark, but the light and you show about way better. Awesome!

  5. That is some really cool photography. I like the last one with the contrast of light and dark the best.
