I have a lot of interest when it comes to photography. One minute I’m interested in shooting people and the next I’m interested in shooting landscape. One type of photography that I have not spent much time with is time lapse (long exposure). Time lapse photography is where you set your camera to a very long exposure (typically greater than 10 seconds). Mostly, this will be done at night but can be done during the day if using a neutral density filter. A good example is Ben Canales. He has a website, The Star Trail that has some awesome sky shots.
One of the first times I attempted this type of photography was in 2008 with my Canon 5D Mark II. I was at Huntington Beach near Cleveland and was taking pictures of Lake Erie as a storm began to arise. This shot was a 13 second exposure. I really like how the water looks in this picture. Only thing I wish is that I caught more of the break wall in the picture and I should have had the camera closer to the ground.
