a couple night-time long exposures

[katia]

the other night i decided i wanted to take some long exposure photos, so i gathered my boyfriend (aka tripod carrier) and my gear, and we went on a hike up some large bluffs. this picture was taken at one of the lower parts of the bluffs:


Camera: Nikon D90
Exposure: 20
Aperture: f/9.0
Focal Length: 105 mm
Focal Length: 106.8 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: No Flash

and then it took us about 45 minutes to get to this spot (which is actually NOT the spot i wanted to be at, but it was pitch black, we had headlamps, and i got lost). this is a shot of our marina:


Camera: Nikon D90
Exposure: 30
Aperture: f/9.0
Focal Length: 300 mm
Focal Length: 302.0 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: No Flash

and on the way down i got these 2 shots of one of the elementary schools:


Camera: Nikon D90
Exposure: 15
Aperture: f/9.0
Focal Length: 18 mm
Focal Length: 18.3 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: No Flash


Camera: Nikon D90
Exposure: 15
Aperture: f/9.0
Focal Length: 18 mm
Focal Length: 18.3 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: No Flash

hope you enjoy, i enjoyed taking these shots!

PS - is there a better way to post EXIF data, i had to go into the "more properties" of each photo on flickr and then copy and paste...kind of time consuming.

the last one looks like little needles is flying in all directions! It looks insane in a good way. mind explaining how you did it?

those are really beautiful captures! your efforts paid so well! it takes real passion to do what you did to get those shots! thanks for sharing!

These are great shots! No sign of camera shake usually found in long exposures. Thanks for sharing details. Sorry but I dont know of other ways of posting exif data.

Wow - those are great shots! The second one - of the marina - is my favourite.

Ausnap - that's one of the things that just happens when you take a long exposure of lights like that, and that last one is a particularly fabulous example of it.
