Light Trails




After learning about long exposures we quickly realised how much fun it can be to capture light from objects traveling through the frame. As we briefly touched on in Motion In Stillness and Night Photography; with the shutter open any movement passing through the frame will leave in imprint on the film or sensor. If the camera is still and the objects passing through the frame are emitting light and moving in a repetitive motion they will look like rivers of light.

In this case it's not any object that is moving, its me. Since the camera is secured to the bus and the bus is in motion it comes out sharp while everything outside is blurred.
