    I see what you mean by the excessive white. That possibly could be fixed in PS or another editing software but you will def need filters from what I have been told.
    The second water one is kind of cool :) almost like a spider web.
    here is a link to how to post pics that is really easy to follow ;o) That way people can view your pics without having to leave the forum.

    Thanks again for the link Connie,I’ve made an attempt to post a photo in the nature section we’ll see how that goes,badly I expect.I’ve got a love/hate relationship with computers,the computer loves to drive me around the bend and I really hate the computer.

    I put this in another discussion but it might be relevant to this one too:

    this is a cool shot but rather than bulb it is done with many exposures and Scott is very good at describing how each of his shots are taken so others can try learn themselves.

    Hi Brian,
    thanks for posting the link but it doesn’t seem to be working.

    worth looking at if you check out scott hargis, he has a site, and a really good flickr account as well as a decent blog.

    long exposure photography is great my advice is to get an older purely mechanical camera,a camera with a time setting, learn to develope b/w film(it’s not that hard) don’t worry about reciprocity failure then you can do 3-4hour exposure.Get a book called” night and low light”by Jill Waterman

    Thanks for your post eunified61,it’s an area of photography I’d love to have a go at but know nothing about.
    I’ll do a bit of research into what cameras would do the job.
    Thanks ,
    Austin.

    Are you sure your camera won’t go past 30 secs even when in Bulb? To use Bulb, you may find you need to have a cable release screwed in, press to start exposure, twist to lock the cable in open position, then after the appropriate time has elapsed, twist the cable lock the other direction to allow the shutter to close.

    Hi Alex,
    I haven’t been using a shutter release cable so that could be my problem on the Fuji s9500 :oops: . Are they a standard fit or do you have to get one specific to the s9500.I did see an electronic shutter release for the s9500 on eBay for $45 but thought it might not work.My Fuji s5700 doesn’t have bulb just a max 4 seconds,I’m hoping to upgrade to a dslr but that won’t be for awhile yet I’m afraid so I need to learn my trade on these cameras.
    Thanks,
    Austin.
