Friday fun

With all the blogging on Todd Hido this week, I wanted to get out with my tripod and try my hand at some super-long exposures. It’s a strange feeling to release the shutter, go inside, check e-mail, get something to drink, go back out to close the shutter, and actually have a picture after all that.

I’ve done moonscapes before—two- or three-minute exposures under the full moon. (Shout-out to Say Dempsay, the teacher whose assignment got me out doing that last year!) Here’s an example of one of the moonscapes I took. This was taken around 10 p.m. (in the lower 48, not in Ben Huff’s Land of the Midnight Sun).

The moonscapes were fun to play with, but I think I like even better the shots that I took tonight. I’m no Todd Hido, of course, but it was fun and it gave me some ideas. Not bad for a Friday night.
