    First exposure to photography in late-1960s in McKinley Park with Charles Ott and Malcomb Lockwood. Later working in a studio and color lab. A lifetime later and 50 years in technology, I've retired and have been 'returning to photography'. (Always been a 'side line' of mine... misc. weddings, portraits, some outdoor stuff.) But I've always had my time with Charlie and Malcomb rumbling around in the back of my mind calling me to the outdoors. Lots of changes from my Canon FTbN, F1N, AEs, and a few others. Now shooting M6 Mark II hoping to get an R for Christmas or birthday. Your videos have been not only informative, but inspirational. All I can say is 'bravo'.... and Thank YOU!

    I used to love the app I had on my Sony A7R II, it was the "Smooth Water" app, it stacked multiple images into one RAW file in camera, very configurable, guaranteed no optical issues or colour casts as there's no extra glass in front of the lens
    Best way to do it in my opinion but very heavy on shutter count if you're not using a mirrorless camera set on electronic shutter
    You can do this any time of day you like, e.g. if you want a 2 minute exposure you can take 120 x 1 sec exposures and median blend in PS/Affinity/etc, that gives the same result and guaranteed no optical defects or colour casts from filters

    Secondly , in this vlog , when it shows the camera taking the long exposure shot is flash being used. I was watching intently trying to absorb everything and it looked like the area in front of the camera was lighting up so I didn't know if flash was used . Thank you x

    Gary what am I missing from your video. I thought you were going to take a series of single photos and stack them in photoshop shop to create the feeling of motion without filters and without having to wait for the light going in (and ruining the contrast). If you did what I was thinking you could create the feeling of great motion, lighting, etc. using a modified time-lapse approach. What say you my friend?

    Seriously!!!
    While I cannot even say I'm a armature (or even a newb?) here, as the camera equipment I have has only collected dust over the last 5yrs. Upon watching this video, however, its given me - hope - that I “can” do this.
    Landscape/ long exposure, abstract and macro photography is what I've been wanting to get into, however, after combing through all the RUclips Photographers I've watched, has kept me rather quite intimidated, as all this gear is - indeed - quite expensive.
    So ya, this has renewed my desire to get into this hobby, albeit career.
    Admittedly, however, I am quite the newb here. Yet hoping to change/ remedy that in time. Again, thank you for sharing this w/ us here. You've been not only very informative, yet very easy to understand.

    Great video! Have you ever used the method where you instead take multiple shots of the same composition on a tripod and then use Photoshop to stack them into a single composite image (using the “mean” stacking method to combine them)? This would also achieve the long exposure blur effect without having to use nd filters and without having to wait for it to get so dark.

    Thanks for the explanation and inspiration. Well done and good tips. I wonder, though, that you didn’t refer to the fact that it was a cloudy evening, so practically there was no sun during “sunset “ and the dynamic range wasn’t problematic, thus enabling the longer exposure.

    • @GaryGough
