How do you work up the patience to do a slow
shutter photoshoot? How long do you normally
spend when you go out to photograph a typical
water scenery?
It’s not very hard to be patient when you
enjoy what you’re doing and spending time
in interesting places. I enjoy the surrounding
atmospheres or I have someone with me to have
a nice talk between the exposures. The time I
spend on one image varies greatly. Sometimes
I arrive at the perfect moment to take a picture
or two, knowing after just 30 Minutes that it is
already how it’s supposed to be. Very often,
however, it takes more or less the whole day
to come up with one or two good pictures that
fit my perception. Sometimes I even have to
come back another time in a different light or
weather to make the image how I want it to
be. The exposure-times also vary quite a bit,
between a few seconds and about one hour.
