Today we bring you an enticing article about long exposure photography. Long exposure photography is a technique in which a camera’s shutter is left open to expose over a longer period of time (be it 8 seconds or 8 hours). It is quite famous, trendy and somewhat difficult form of photography that allows you to witness things from a different perspective and lets you experience time in a different fashion. It enlightens your imagination to see beyond the face of an image, and to see what it can become.
So, without a further ado, here we present a list of 45 of the dazzling and unbelievable long exposure photographs that will take your breath away. We are quite sure that you will love this post whether you are a photographer or just a long exposure photography fan.

Such kind of photographs are always an inspiration to new commers
Great display of wonderful shots, I love them all!
Genius! Love love love your photographs :D
Stunning. The Pigeon Point Lighthouse one looks so mysterious....
Those pics are impressive.

Best,
Asher.
Genial!
I love the fireworks exposure the most
if you look at his post... its posted on april 8th which means it was from the other night retard
hi
Your long exposure photography blows my mind! Your images are very surreal, and have a generally pleasing aesthetic. Kudo's.
Its a very great photography. A brilliant flicks and compilation.
The next time I read a web site, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as considerably as this 1. I imply, I know it was my option to read, but I essentially believed youd have a thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about a thing that you just could fix for those who werent too busy searching for attention.
Very nice collection of photos.
Found you on Stumble Upon...Glad I tripped into you.
Well done. The are simply spectacular. Love'm

fits perfectly for the "long time exposure" topic though don't you think? puts the perspective of time in a new light. though she was modest enough to claim the fault right after (AND keep it up), you all still flock at the chance to ridicule her long after it happened. all while never commenting on the base topic to begin with... tsk tsk
I envy your free time and your life.
What are these?
i like verymuch what a beauty full photos..

Those were amazing - loved every one of them!
WOW, you guys! Jordan posted in June and assumed Piyanisll did too. She realized after busting him out that he actually posted on April 8, so the time stamp on the photo of April 7 was "last night" when HE posted, not when SHE posted. When she realized the mistake, she owned up to it.
you have wonderful eyes
you have a beautiful face
yeah..nice images. I will try some this weekend..
Hey John...
Take it easy man... they are just images..

THANK YOU. These are amazing I love all of them.
I sometimes don't set the time on my camera so that could be why. Definitely taken by the guy, check out his style of photography on his flickr "pro" (being paid for) account
Amazing photos not my field but I wish I could do it.
Thanks for the insight
Very Good post man Thank you
Lol :L
Nevertheless, the photograph is still something we all must see. :)
I like the "Loose Voltage" foto. :-)
ouch...
Have a look at One Eyeland. Some of the best images I have seen in a long time oneeyeland.com
These are fascinating! I like the one Perki did as well :)
very nice. my boyfriend spins fire poi &i take some pretty cool pictures of him. but i'm sure that you'd be able to take better ones.
'cause she is a biatch.
Very beautiful séries, I really like it. Great work
Nice colelction.. But a few of them look shooped.
Agreed! My creative juices are well and truely flowing after seeing these shots. Shame there are no setting details ;-(
why you gotta be a bitch
Awesome photos.
i guess ghost pictures count as extended exposure too?
Awesome photos,many of its I guess are more then 30 sec exposing time :) ?
And I should learn to look at the date.. You can mark this (and my other) comment for trash instead. *shameface*
If you did one "last night," then why is the date for the Flickr URL show as having been taken on "April 7, 2010."
Quite trying to derail the post to shamelessly plug your own photo.
wow.. so amazing pictures . like it
This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen as far as Photography goes. I can say that with almost 100% certainty.

What I don't understand is how you people can keep reproducing copyrighted images on your site -- especially without giving credit to the copyright holders. You are just spreading the fallacy that anything on the Web is free for the taking.
you have spectacular eyes
These are beautiful pictures and make for excellent wallpapers. Amazing photography indeed!
Wonderful pics, I'm inspired to try my hand at this myself!
I especially like the dreamy, pastel-like quality of the daytime outdoor shots. I wonder if this is due solely to the long-exposure technique, or if a special filter was used?
Amazing shots.
Although it's a little old, I'd say Justin Quinnell's 6-month long exposure would be a good addition to this gallery.
Truly striking photography, fine examples of the technique. Thank you for the collection. I am troubled by one thing, the lack of photographer credits. Yes, you did link the image name to the photographer so it is available but would it have been so difficult to credit each photographer under the title of the image? Just a thought.
great compilation, thanks.
Such wonderful shots !!! Well done and thank you!
Very cool! I thought my long train one was cool...until I saw these! Nice examples, gives great ideas!
amazing photography
Thank you ...your is also astonishing..is subtle and its beauty lays in that.

Wow! These are all beautiful! But I really really like the "light from within", the one with the flowing water. So beautiful.
These photos are absolutely beautiful...I can't even believe it.

How would one submit their own image for consideration on this list? I just did a long exposure photo of the space shuttle discovery taking off which made Flickr's Explore page.

Cheers for the art that the exposure for a long time creates.

Love the moving water shots - gotta get out my camera and try this! Will use Gimp (free with Ubuntu) to touch the shots up - I'm on disability pension and cannot afford Photo shop or Microsoft for that matter - Tip: save $ Use Ubuntu, older computer, and Gimp for your digital photos!
Simply breathtaking.
Very cool effects, love your collection of photos.
