There are a couple of items necessary to capture long exposures, first is dim lighting conditions. We can't control the sun but we can control when we go shooting, so for dimmer light I go on overcast and cloudy days and during dusk hours around sunrise and sunset. Along with a carefully picked time of day, I also go into the field with a couple of filters known as Neutral Density Filters, which...
The off season brings opportunities for clear waters, clear haze free skies, and low light scenis shooting. As I get into my full swing for off season seascape shooting, I thought I'd share some of my panoramics from last year!

It was a quiet day in Stonington harbor, mostly spent swimming off the boat and cruising around in the dinghy for a little harbor tour! In the evening, we made it onto land for a terrific shower and some ice...
