Long Exposure Photography

Long exposure photography is my favourite kind of photography and also one of the most interesting. When looking at a lot of long exposure photos I felt they were all quite similar if not the same so in this photo collection I have looked at stereotypical long exposure shots as well as some different shots using the same technique.

Long exposure photos are created by having a slow shutter speed (Having the cameras shutter open for longer) so it lets more light in over time. Therefore if you move light it captures it all creating light trails and patterns. I took these photos at Harwich International Port at 10pm in the dark which is a perfect time and location to take these kinds of photos as there is lights and movement going on throughout the night. Here are some examples of different long exposure photos I have taken.
