Long-Exposure Photography

Long-exposure photography in color and black and white by fine art photographer Andrew Prokos. This genre of photography utilizes long exposure times, typically two to eight minutes, to capture the scene over a prolonged period of time, and during low-light conditions at dusk or at night. Long-exposure photography is characterized by the blurring of motion, such as masses of people passing through a particular location. The long exposure time also renders flowing water and clouds with a soft, ethereal look which lends a somewhat surreal aspect to the photo.
