Long Exposure
New York Skyline
Recent vacation day took me into NYC with Cuz J and we ended up in Brooklyn to shoot some long exposures of the skyline. This trip has been planned for three years and finally came together this year.
This is a 88 second exposure using my Lee Little Stopper.
Just got back from a much needed week vacation at Schroon Lake in Adirondack, New York. We have been spending a week up there every Summer for the past four years and my kids love it. I usually spend a good portion of the time photographing my kids playing on the beach, but always reserve just after dinner for myself. This is a combination Long Exposure and HDR blended together.
I usually try to take a photo like this with something such as some rocks or a pier in the water. Seeing how there was neither, I decided to try a beach chair. I am pretty happy with the results.

I would like to say this is a secret spot, but if you drive down Leesville Road in the Winter, it's very visible. I was able to hit three different waterfalls today...... tons of photos to process, but this is one of my favorites so far.
The weather in this area has been very wet for the last few weeks. I've been wanting to check out this spot for a while now and the current storm let up for roughly two hours, just enough time for me to get to this location, figure out a couple of spots, and shoot some long exposure. Happy I did!
This first one is from the lower section of the falls. This is where I started.
I worked my way up to the top of the falls, to capture what I am calling the "Triple Play"
After several spots, I was pretty satisfied with my results, so just as I decided to leave, the rain started coming down again. Just in time for me to get out of there.

I have been finding local waterfalls all over the place lately. This is another from the same stream as my previous photos (this makes 4 for this stream and I'm still looking). This one is a little more difficult to get to, but well worth it.
