7 Incredible Extended Exposure Photographs

Extended exposure, or long exposure, photography can yield some amazing visuals graphic designs can take advantage of for postcard, brochure, poster, and other designs. In fact, sometimes extended exposure photography can be the entire design itself – you don’t need to add your own bells and whistles when you can shoot an amazing photograph. Extended exposure photographers are capable of capturing a plethora of phenomenal effects, as evidenced by the following seven incredible extended exposure photographs.

Fireworks!

Ever wonder what fireworks would look like if they never fizzled out during their return to earth? Now you know!

Calypso

Would you still ride this amusement park beast if you knew you would be reduced to a series of pixels? Makes me wonder if it isn’t some sort of cosmic collider.

Lighthouse

Captains certainly missed safe passage to the shore if their guiding lights looked like this.

Capetown Blue

A chilling light mist recedes from Capetown in this extended exposure photograph of nature.

Riverstream

I love the long exposure effect of running water, which I think lends this photo an animated, cartoonish appearance.

Smokestacks

With all their constant movement and emissions, perhaps smokes are the perfect mediam for extended exposure photograph. They look to me like white ghostly wisps.

Streetview

Watching car goes go by has suddenly become much more fun – and pretty!
