In honor of my presentation on Long Exposure tonight, I thought I would share this B&W image that is a favorite from 2016.
I often refer to Long Exposures as images that reduce visual clutter, I often hear parts of an image looking at them. To look at an image of a firetruck, the sounds come to mind, an image of crashing waves stopped in action by a fast shutter speed brings the sounds that makes into my ears...so eliminating that visual, silences that for me. And that is where the title of this image came from. And in black and white, the distractions of color are taken away, allowing better focus on the real subject of the image.
