> A style that is also known by the names time-exposure or slow-shutter photography. The technique is done by setting the camera to Manual or Bulb mode and using slow shutter speed, the effect is best observed when the shutter speed is set to around 5 - 30 secs. By doing this, the camera has to be steady, a tripod is helpful in this set-up. The result of the image is characterized by the blurring effect of the elements in the frame that are moving while keeping the static elements sharply captured.
