Ferris Silhouette
This is the first time I’ve tried a long exposure shot seriously. My last tries were for half a second during the day time. The silhouette was a man who walked into the shot less than a second before I pressed the shutter and then, miraculously, stayed absolutely still for the 4 seconds (when I say ‘long exposure’, it wasnt THAT long…but i still wanted the wheel to have visible spokes.) and then immediately after it had finished taking, disappeared into the crowds. Weird…
The photo was taken in London, at the end of the London Boat Race.

wa hey! I was there as well, of course. Not my camera. Or tripod. But I at least helped point the thing in the right direction. ish.
Still an awesome shot.

Fantastic image. You have a great eye.
Jonathan Dower
actually the guy didn’t stay exactly still—he moved out of shot during it i think hence him being slightly transparent!!!!

Awesome shot! It is beautiful! Your long exposure worked great and the guy watching is looking at it as if it is an ET. Very cool shot!

Excellent composition, good to meet another Olympus user. I had the E-510 until I switched to the E-3. I miss the compactness of the 510 sometimes.
