The rivers have started to freeze here in Northern Norway and in this pictures you can see drops from the small water fall have frozen on branches and straws.
I used 15 seconds exposure in this photo to get the look of the water fall. Long exposure photography have been a hit for me lately, but the weather have been very gray and boring so there haven’t been many opportunities to take photos. That is why there have been so few updates on this blog.

Picture of river using a 10 seconds long exposure

In this picture I have used a 10 seconds long exposure to create the foggy and metallic look on the river. I love the look running waters gets from long exposures.
It has to be pretty dark to be able to get long exposures or use a special filter. I don’t have a filter like that so I had to wait for twilight. The forest seems very different when it gets dark. A bit spooky 😉

Check out this long exposure picture I took of a rocky beach.
