Conguratulations! Good work...
Thanks so much, @chorock!
Wow
:))))! Thanks!
Excellent shots, Isabel, specially the first one. What a cool effect! :-D
Thanks so much, my friend! I hope everything is fine with you by now!
It seems that the sharks are sleeping now. 😀
Google it, I don't know if they sleep at all.
Maybe that's the problem. Without sleep, the brain goes insane.
Let them be... stay away. They attack only when they are disturbed. Relax and keep doing your great work!

Thanks, my dear Pix!
My favourites are the bottom one and the one with the stars @nolasco.
But something I don't quite understand . . . I can tell the photograph at the top is long exposure since it captures the movement of the light.
But I don't get what long exposure does to a landscape photograph. I only use my phone so long exposure isn't possible and I'm curious about this.
Does it deepen the colour or what? 😁
If you remember next time you take one could you take one for me that's just a single
My dear Gillian, thanks for always replying to my question about which ones you like more!
About the long exposure, basically means you can take photos without light with a low ISO. ISO is one of the 3 main parameters you have to deal with to take a shot. The other 2 are shutter speed and aperture. They depend of and interact with each other. And through their combination you can take the photos you want to, with the effects you wish to.
So, without light, like in night photography or in the dark, if you want to take a photo and have a tripod, you can lower the ISO and get a photo with no noise (grain). If you don't have a tripod, you need to higher the ISO to take a photo, and then you get one, but with noise (after you can edit them and reduce it, but the result is never the same - unless you want THAT result!).
With a long exposure photo, meaning the shutter speed as low as you need (most of DSLR cameras have 30 sec. by default, but you can choose BULB setting and then choose the time you want the exposure to be), depending on the aperture (for landscapes a smaller one is desirable, so you can have all the image "focused"), you got this:
There are filters that allow you to take long exposure photos during the day also, that's why you can see those beautiful silky waterfalls long exposure photos on the daylight.
And long exposure allows you to play with endless situations: for instance, in a crowded place at night, like a famous square, if you are lucky with the people moving, the result will be the space to be empty of people.
And get light trails of light moving, like my first photo, or the star trails.
If you have a phone with "live" setting for photos (I do have one, the Iphone X), you can simulate a long exposure with a life photo (by pushing the photo up and choosing the setting long exposure).
I hope I have been clear, I tried to keep the explanation simple, but if you have any more questions just "shoot" them back!
Thanks for the great information @nolasco.
My phone is pretty basic and I don't have a "live" setting on it. I do have some other ones I've not tried though. So I'll try and remember to have a play around with them next time I'm out and about. 😁
You do well. And then I want to see them all ;)!
The biggest challenge is remembering the settings are there @nolasco. 😂
Ahaha, that's true! It's a challenge even to everyone!
If you remember next time you take one could you take one for me that's just a single
I don't know what you mean by "that's just a single" but will take one for you!
Sorry. That wasn't very well put and I meant to say "single click". 😂
What I meant was . . . next time you take a long exposure photograph of something without much movement in it like the second picture above, for example, could you take a photograph without long exposure. So, If I understand correctly from what you say above, instead of using a shutter speed of 30 seconds take one with whatever that standard speed would be.
I'm interested to see the difference. That's all.
hope that makes better sense now. 😍
Ahah maybe the difference is a photo vs a black rectangle ;). But now it made all the sense. Great challenge, I will do it! And then show you both, sure! It's a promise. I just don't know when. But I won't forget, my dear Gillian!
Ah I was wondering that @nolasco. That makes a lot of sense then as to why you would take the long exposure landscape shots. 😁
No hurry. I think I get it now anyway after your excellent explanation.
Thanks so much, Gillian. But I still will do it, I'm curious too! Cheers!
Fantastic!👏👏👏
Thanks so much, Manuel :)))))!
