No two people are the same, like no two Polaroid shots are the same. In life, just like in our photography, it's our imperfections that make us unique.

Learn to Capture Time Using Long Exposure (DLE) Photography with Jürgen M. Lobert

Start Date

This is a workshop to explore the creative aspects of long exposures taken during daylight. Similar in concept to night photography, daytime long exposures record 1 to 15 minutes of time in a single photo. This no longer freezes actions, but rather records the element of time, where water surfaces smooth over to a mirror finish, clouds form bands in the sky, lights and shadows soften and people start disappearing. This creates unique and intriguing images of the world that we usually perceive in momentary exposures.
