Snow White
Long Exposure in Daylight
Weekly Challenge: May 6 – May 13 (2012)
Your challenge this week is to use a long exposure to capture a subject or scene in daylight. Ideally, you want part of the photo to be sharp and unblurred, and part of the photo to be “motion blurred” due to keeping the shutter open for a long time. Normally, we use this technique for night and astro photography, but there are many creative uses for it in the daylight hours, which for this challenge is from sunrise to sunset in your geographic location. This means that dawn and twilight don’t qualify. Yes, I know these are the best times to shoot, but these are supposed to be CHALLENGES. So, put your thinking hats on and get creative! Have fun!
