Photo contest: post processing #23 / Additions

Clarification of the task and the terms of the previously announced competition.

The terms and conditions of participation are set out in "Photo contest: post processing #23"

This post is primarily for those who continue to participate in the party or looked at the light for the first time. The theme of the party is "Long Exposure".

Apparently I didn't quite clearly describe this task. Perhaps I should have clarified the wording and the topic could have sounded like this: "Using a long exposure to create an artistic effect in photography."

Yes, that would be more specific. It's not easy to imagine a photo with a rather long shutter speed (for example, you shot in automatic night shooting mode on your phone), but a photo where you deliberately set a long shutter speed to get the desired effect. For example, smoothing the streams of moving fountain water or blurring the background behind a moving cyclist when you followed him with your camera.

Some time ago, I created a relatively detailed post on the use of a long ver;kki for shooting moving объектов

I recommend reading its contents. The above photos are taken from that post.

Here are a couple more old pictures using long exposure.But it is no longer the object itself that is moving here. Here, a long shutter speed is needed so that I can make different movements with the camera itself. With this I make some "drawing" on the camera matrix.

Now I am actively engaged in improving this technique. For this purpose, I had to buy an additional lens with a zoom and come up with a homemade gimbal head for a tripod (in order to rotate the camera around the optical axis while pressing the camera shutter).

In fact, there can be much more options for using a long exposure and everyone can come up with something of their own. It is this variety that I would like to see at our party.

Thus, I clarify our topic, make changes to the post-announcement and postpone the deadline for the end of this stage of the party.
The refined topic sounds like this:

"The use of extended exposure to obtain the desired artistic effect"

The deadline for accepting applications is 7 days from the date of publication of ** this** post (21.00 30.05 2023).

Each participant has a week to experiment with using a long exposure and presenting materials.

I wish you all success and look forward to your creative solutions and results.
