Long Exposure Shots....

4/5/2020

0 Comments

 
One of the more popular questions I get asked from people who have seen some of my shots by water whether its the sea, river, a waterfall... is how did you get it to look smooth or milky rather than crisp and sharp water detail shot.

Well it's done by using the Long Exposure Technique.
Basically when the photo is taken, rather than the shutter opening and closing very very quickly like it normally does to keep the image sharp with no blurring, the shutter opens and closes very slowly over quite a few seconds, sometimes as long as 20 or 30 seconds.

How to do this with a dslr camera.....
Find a spot where nothing else is moving in the background, so no people, trees moving in the wind, boats bobbing up and down in the water, otherwise the water isn't the only thing that's going to look like its moving.
You need a tripod or somewhere to place your camera where its not going to move.
To get the shutter to open and close over a number of seconds you need either low light (early morning/late evening) or in the daytime you need a Neutral Density (ND) Filter to go on your camera lens.

There are no specific setting to capture anything in photography as every scene is different with different lighting and so on, so the following are only a guide to help you as a basis for this type of photography so try it and maybe change the setting as you need or want to to give you the desired effect and light.
I used Aperture Priority for the photo below so the camera set its own shutter speed according to my other settings, but you can use Shutter Priority and choose your own shutter speed and let the camera choose the other setting for you.
In the photo below taken at Linton Falls near Grassington in the Yorkshire Dales it was fast running water at this location so I didn't need a longer shutter speed to get this effect on this photo but if its slower you may need your shutter to stay open longer.

So to get the photograph below I ....
Placed camera on tripod.
Attached ND Filter.
Set to Aperture Priority Mode
ISO 100 - F9 - 6 Sec Shutter Speed.
Use either the cameras timer or a remote button to take the photo to stop camera shake and blurring of the background, half press to focus and then full press to take the photo as usual.
Check after on view screen and adjust settings if required and re-take if it's not quite how you want it.
And don't forget like most photographers, some editing is always done back on the pc to lighten / darken / bring out the colours etc.
​
Hope that helps - Its not that complicated so try it, have fun and don't get too disheartened if it doesn't work out for you first time, Practice makes perfect.

Its that time of year that Daffodils and other flowers and now blooming or starting to bloom.

Janste Photography out taking photos of flowers ! Its are not really my thing, but I can adapt to taking photographs of a variety of subjects or people.
Due to the restrictions on movement causing a lack of business enquiries I've been out locally with the camera on a sunny Yorkshire day to see what I could take photographs of to get my photography fix.

As with all my own photo, they are available to buy as prints and licensed downloads for personal and business use, Contact Janste Photography for more info >>>

A variety of photographs are on display in the Online Gallery at.....

Sunbridge Wells Bradford

1/12/2019

0 Comments

 
On Friday lunchtime I had a trip down to Sunbridge Wells in Bradford.

Its quite a unique place to see, especially in boring Bradford, its historic underground tunnels with some bars and a few shops and stalls.
Maybe its because the entrances are hidden away, it seems very few people visit the place in the daytime, maybe its different in the evening with people visiting the few bars and places to eat?
If this place had been in the centre of Leeds, Manchester or London it would be busy all day long but unfortunately its here in Bradford and seems to lack support from most of the local people and Bradford Council seems to lack the willingness and ability to draw people from out of the city to visit and experience the places we do have.

I've been into Sunbridge Wells quiet a few of times before but never taken my camera until this visit so here's my take on the main through areas in this quite unique place.

Don't forget to visit my online store where you'll find some great photographs of Yorkshire and beyond.
Think of it like a Gallery, even if you don't want to make a purchase there's some great photos to look at.
