Long exposure photography, a captivating photographic technique, enables you to capture the world in a way that transcends the ordinary. By extending the duration of your iPhone’s exposure, you can create images that are truly extraordinary. In this article, we will unravel the secrets of long exposure photography on your iPhone, right from understanding the fundamentals to mastering the art.
What is long exposure Photo?
Usually, in general photo shots, the shutter opens for a fraction of a second, however, in long exposure photography the camera’s shutter opens for a longer time, like seconds or minutes. It catches and mixes up all the light and action it sees. This makes things like car lights look like streaks, water turns smooth and dreamy and appears to flow like silk, moving objects of the scene draw lines across the image, and stars form trails. It’s like a magical recipe for making your photos look artistic and special. This happens because the water or the other object is moving while the shutter stays open and it blurs across the image before the shutter closes but anything that is not moving will stay perfectly in focus. The following pictures are a few examples of long-exposure photography.
