Day time long exposure

Day time long exposure

Recently I’ve picked up a B+W ND 110 filter which is lots of fun, a little costly but knocks out 10 stops! Having the ability to do some ridiculously long exposures when it’s relatively light creates lots of new opportunities. As I’m a sucker for long exposures this has always limited me to shooting when the light is quite diffused (around sunset or sunrise). Now that I own the B+W 110, this will allow me to shoot daylight long exposures.

This was shot on a cold afternoon at South Arm with a 2 minute exposure at f.20

    That filter is awesome. I think I want one. Is it a screw on filter or one to go in the cokin holder?

      Nige, it’s a screw on filter which is probably better IMHO. Obviously you have to compose before you screw it on which is fun..

    Wow!

    Far out…

    This looks surreal.

    Very cool work, I would love to try something like this.

    How dod you get the exposure to last 2 minutes? The highest I can set mine is 30 seconds….

    Bulb mode and a remote shutter (a button on a cable that plugs into the camera. the button can lock down holding the shutter open)
