Can I already ask to push the deadline back to sunday evening? I'm not sure it'll make a difference for me, but it'll keep my hopes up to come up with three entries for this round.

No, don't worry, it's next week. I'm trying to plan ahead, but that's all very new to me 🙂

I doubt I'll come up with something new for this round (new night shots are out of the question, there's no night anymore...), but I should have enough to choose from in my archives.
Boooo!!!!

I started a shooting session a couple of nights ago, to try to imitate a shot I'd seen. Turns out I couldn't, but I did get some pics, which I realised I could do once I started experimenting.

So get playing!!!

Yeah, you can do it.

And who needs night! 🙂 Slap on a red #25 filter and you can make black and white look like it's night time and cut out almost a full stop of light. Try a neutral density filter, use a low ISO/ASA setting with a small aperture, or try a circular-polarized filter. You can make it work. 🙂

I don't have any filters. And it's much too late to try something with my SLR, so I would have to use the digital camera which limits the possibilities further. And I don't have any ideas whatsoever. And I have a lot of extended exposures in my archive. So there.

One thing I do like about your competitions, Nordlys, is that it gets me thinking creatively again. I've already got plenty of old shots that qualify for most of the competitions, but I like having a reason to make new ones. I have a lot of time on my hands, though, so it's easy for me to go out with that purpose. For something like extended exposure, not having filters--and sun all day--could pose a problem. But even shots at 1/15th of a second qualify, so just about anything's possible in my opinion. I'm sure you've got some fantastic extended exposure shots to turn in, but I hope you find some creativity, Nordlys. Make something new--you can do it! 🙂

You are right, of course. I have had a lot of fun with the last two rounds (and with the "Self" round which never actually happened), and I have tried things I otherwise wouldn't have tried. But I am at a complete loss when it comes to "Extended Exposure". I have absolutely no idea what to do with that theme.

I get photographer's block, too, sometimes. Best wishes thinking of something.
