“Long Exposure with a Twist” - Visual art contest

Hello fellow Photography enthusiasts!

It is time to announce next PHOTOGRAPHY contest sponsored by nTopaz. The theme is “Long Exposure with a Twist”

Why Long Exposure with a Twist?

This contest is dedicated to more than just clicking the button. We want to see the care and effort that flows into an art piece. We want to see how you collect light in a different fashion.
You can show off a Landscape or a City Scape or a Portrait – anything that shows us the usual but unusual. Please tell us a story of what you tried to accomplish and explain how you got there. Please share with us what and how you made your art piece.
Please accept the challenge even if you never tried a long exposure before. Think about it and try to create. Just give it a try and please share your results with us.
Please try to think outside the box Please don’t think of a long exposures only using a camera on a tripod! You can start your camera and grab a sparkler and share some love in form of a heart. There are also many effects, you can achieve by zooming the lens or even moving the entire camera instead. So let your ideas run free and see what creative new ideas you come up with.
