A friend of mine shot this of me, and though it's not necessarily complimentary, I think it's accurate.
Thoughts?

I want to take a long exposure so that I can blur some motion, but in daylight. Is this possible without getting a seriously overexposed picture? Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

You'll need to use your lowest ISO and a high aperture number in order to let less light in and achieve a longer shutter speed. Even then, you may have too high a shutter speed for that. You can get a neutral density filter that will cut some more light to allow a longer shutter speed. These are often used in order to get smooth flowing water in pics, but will also help for what you want to do. Make sure to use a tripod.
Here is one on Adorama for $19, used. I think 58mm is the thread size of your 18-55 lens.

One more thing to add to Yo's good suggestions, if you have a polarizer, you can use that as a neutral density filter to get a little extra shutter time.

You need "neutral density" filters for this.
