Challenge: 2-Second Exposure (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon PowerShot SD400
Location: Farmington, New Mexico
Date: Mar 16, 2006
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 50
Shutter: 2 sec
Date Uploaded: Mar 17, 2006

Set up my 350D on a tripod, with my SD400 on another tripod behind it. Tried about 50 shots, liked this one best. Edited to crop, increase contrast, sharpen, brighten details on back of camera, burned some shadows and cracks in the ground.

As far as meeting the challengeâ€Â¦you did. As far as making an interesting or appealing photo I would say it is lacking. The only focus here is the camera which is the subject only to show that it is a 2-sec exposureâ€Â¦which it really doesn’t do that either because that camera isn’t taking the picture. If you had something in the photo that made you look to the background and tie your image together I think it would have been better. Maybe if you had set the camera up all the way to the right with a small streak of the cars going by. I think you tried hard to think outside the box and shoot something original and I give you points for that. Next time look at the whole photo as one and see what else can hold the viewers attention.

Different take on an overused 2" set-up. Would have been great to see an actual 2" shot on your preview screen! 7

Was it deliberate on your part to have the speed limit post poke the shutter button? Are you suggesting that 35 is a better speed than 2''?
