Mastering Long Exposure Photography
A practical guide to the technical and creative decisions behind long-exposure photography.
Ammonite Press · 2018
Mastering Long Exposure Photography is a practical guide to one of photography’s most technically demanding and creatively distinctive approaches.
The book covers planning, exposure, filtration, camera stability, focusing, movement and post-production, while also considering the visual decisions that determine whether a long exposure is actually the right treatment for a scene.
It moves from daytime work with neutral-density filters through city and night photography, showing how shutter speed can transform movement, atmosphere and the relationship between static and moving elements.
