Slow Shutter/StreakyLights: Rainbow


StreakyLights (8)-3, originally uploaded by iDrawWithLight.

Once again, I shot a couple of slow shots on a road trip in the passenger seat a couple of hours ago. This image is my favourite of the day as it's full and rich of fine colours. Funny thing's that it was a lorry in the left (slow) lane.

The Key: a slow exposure- anything between 20 and 3 seconds exposure, Low ISO- ideally 100 for the soft look and no grain, high F-Stop (small Aperture) in order to only let the desired light in. If you use a high aperture (Low F-Stop) you would get some sort of X-Files looking image, one with just light on it and no distinction, one that just looks like your display screen's been sprayed in powder, one that...well, to cut a long story short, you'd get a pretty ugly and extremely over-exposed image.
