This weeks theme: Long Exposure

I Cannot believe we're on Week 10 already? I participated ALL 10 weeks, I have done :

1. My New Year’s Eve selfies
2. New clothes for something new
3. White Bread
4. Black Mascara
5. ICE cubes for cold
6. Black Basteard warm
7. Love Boots
8. Freedom view
9. Animal for macro

And now week 10 I have choosen flowers for the long Exposure assignment.

As @wwwiebe already stated and i quote ~ Many of us know that, currently, there is a small war going on to either take-over or protect the blockchain, depending on your point of view. For many of us small-fish-in-the-pond it can lead to a lot of uncertainty. The best I can do is control what is in my ability to control. I have cast my votes and, that done, I am going to keep doing what I do. Let's take photos, enjoy each others company, and appreciate what it means to be a global community brought together by a shared love of art.~ Thats what my thoughts were aswell as i was looking for a object for the assignment. What better and nicer object than flowers. In this case tulips. The Dutch pride and peoples joy.

What is long-exposure ?

Long-exposure, time-exposure, or slow-shutter photography involves using a long-duration shutter speed to sharply capture the stationary elements of images while blurring, smearing, or obscuring the moving elements. Long-exposure photography captures one element that conventional photography does not: an extended period of time.

The paths of bright moving objects become clearly visible—clouds form broad bands, vehicle lights draw bright streaks, stars leave trails in the sky, and water waves appear smooth. Only bright objects leave visible trails, whereas dark objects usually disappear. Boats in long exposures disappear during daytime, but draw bright trails from their lights at night.When a scene includes both stationary and moving subjects (for example, a fixed street and moving cars or a camera within a car showing a fixed dashboard and moving scenery), a slow shutter speed can cause interesting effects, such as light trails.

Long exposures are easiest to accomplish in low-light conditions, but can be done in brighter light using neutral density filters or specially designed cameras. When using a dense neutral density filter your camera's auto focus will not be able to function. It is best to compose and focus without the filter. Then once you are happy with the composition, switch to manual focus and put the neutral density filter back on.

Long-exposure photography is often used in a night-time setting, where the lack of light forces longer exposures, if maximum quality is to be retained. Increasing ISO sensitivity allows for shorter exposures, but substantially decreases image quality through reduced dynamic range and higher noise. By leaving the camera's shutter open for an extended period of time, more light is absorbed, creating an exposure that captures the entire dynamic range of the digital camera sensor or film. If the camera is stationary for the entire period of time that the shutter is open, a very vibrant and clear photograph can be produced.
