Daytime Long Exposure – Panorama Shots

www.sharontenenbaum.com

The first time that I tried a daytime long exposure with multiple shots for a panoramic image and then stitching the images together.  Photoshop CS5 stitch does a pretty good job although I do see some inconsistencies with the cloud streaks. Something I still need to practice more.

This image of the Golden Ears Bridge was taken on a sandbar along the Fraser River (BC), too bad there was so much city clutter.  I thought the sepia tones would reduce them a bit not it’s not doing it for me, a nice attempt and I certainly am looking forward to taking more landscape daytime long exposure panoramic shots.

Lighthouse Park – Long Exposure in Colour

Lighthouse Park, West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Another beautiful Daytime Long Exposure in Colour with the help of Nik Software, Silver Efex Pro 2 (SEP). After shooting this image with a 13 F-Stop ND Filters (a 10 and a 3) for 8 minutes I got the composition and streaks that I wanted. After coming home and post processing in Photoshop with SEP, I enhanced the Structure to bring out the details in the foreground rocks ,which also added to a strong dramatic sky.  And again, same as the Angkor Wat image, I changed the blending option of the SEP Layer to ‘Luminosity’ from Normal.  Although this image looks amazing in Black and White as well, the colours were to great to give up.

This image was taken at the Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver, British Columbia.
