Hello all,

​​​​​​Today I'm going to explain some details about long exposure shots using a smartphone .Long exposure photography using smartphones can yield stunning results, and it’s a great way to get creative with your mobile photography. 

Understanding Long Exposure Photography:
Long exposure photography involves capturing images with an extended exposure time, allowing more light to reach the camera sensor.
By keeping the camera shutter open for seconds (or even minutes), you can capture movement, light trails, and other interesting effect​​​​s. 

Smartphone: Use a smartphone with a good megapixel count and preferably a wide-angle lens. Night mode can also be helpful.Mini Tripod: Invest in a quality mini tripod to keep your phone steady during long exposures

Setup:
  • Find a stable surface or use the mini tripod to keep your phone steady.
  • Turn on the grid lines in your camera settings to help with composition (check my previous thread if you have any doubts regarding composition)
  • Adjust focus by tapping the screen where you want the camera to focus or you can manually adjust the focus as per your preference.
Types of Long Exposure Shots:
  • Light Trails: Capture moving lights (cars, bikes, etc.) to create mesmerizing trails.
 
  • Astrophotography: Shoot the night sky to capture stars, constellations, and even the Milky Way.

  • Waterfalls and Rivers: Use long exposure to create silky-smooth water flow.
 
  • Traffic at Night: Show the hustle and bustle of city streets with light trails from vehicles.
 
  • Painting with Light: Experiment by “drawing” with a flashlight during the exposure.
