Chatham Light Long Exposures

Earlier this year while on the Cape, I made a quick trip to Chatham Light to catch the sunset. I put a serious filter on the wide-angle lens that allowed for twenty to thirty second exposures during the daylight. With the long exposures and dark filter, it produces an effect where the clouds look like they are streaking across the sky.

On the Shore

A selection of shots from this weekend on a few beaches on Cape Cod. When doing long exposure shots during the day, the jetties provide a great contrast to the blurred ocean and sky.

Long Exposures & The Super Moon

Over the past few weeks, I've been trying out several new filters and  techniques in an attempt to capture more interesting perspectives. So, I spent this weekend snapping away where I could. Here's the first of what will surely be a series of long-exposure daytime shots... and of course, several superfluous pics of the 'super moon' that was all the rage this Saturday.

Night Drives

Surprisingly not illegal! Set up a tripod on the passenger seat, get the focus and exposure right - then click away! Bumps in the road translate into blurs, but the result is a pretty unique effect and a perspective you don't normally see.

Long Overdue Long Exposure Fall Shots

These shots from late fall are much overdue... so here they are, at the end of the year. Many of the blurred water shots were done with a long exposure time (.6 seconds or longer) and stopped down aperture (f/22), the image stabilizer on my lens was helpful but a tripod would be recommended.
