Post your long exposures here

The Light at Cape Blanco

Taken from Bandon, 19 miles away, four minute exposure. I cheated a little and added the lens flare effect digitally...

I think the picture is plenty strong without the lens flare effect... beautiful shot.

I agree.

Union Square
30 minute exposure
f64
90mm schneider super angulon technika
Toyo 45d with ilford delta 100 film

It was packed, but appeared empty because the people were all moving and weren't giving off light.

Very nice, Mike.

Thanks Jim!

These were taken a few years back... you'll have to excuse that they were done with my Mamiya before I had the LF. Most are on Pan-F in ID-11, printed on Oriental Seagull FBVC in Dektol.

30 minutes, Delta 100, f64, Schneider 210mm F9, Gowlandflex


Not sure why the film has been exposed way to the left? Film not all the way down in the holder?

how did you calculate the exposure time?

[Vaughn]

From a long time ago, before I started keeping track of exposures, etc. Cropped from a 4x5 negative (150 or 180 lens). In 1980 it could have been Kodak Royal Pan film, perhaps developed in Microdol-X (1:3)...but I could be wrong. I was not aware of what reciprocity failure was at the time, so I lost some of the detail in the shadows. The exposure time was probably 10 to 30 seconds at f64, but probably closer to 10 than 30.

But I have always liked the image -- it started me on an exploration of the panoramic landscape.
