Tech Tip Tuesday: DUCT TAPE & ROCKS ?•••
•••••
Long exposures are a key way to bringing landscapes to life. I've learned this on my journey to landscape photography 'greatness' over the past week (see previous post for more BG). •
•
During the day that might mean 1-3 second exposures but at night those time can often go on for several minutes or even hours. So the thing is, the max programmed shutter exposure on most cameras is 30 seconds. In order to deal with the limitless number of longer exposures, cameras have a 'bulb' mode that simply keeps the shutter open as long as you push the shutter button. Now most landscape pros use a cabled shutter release to fire the camera for these long exposures without bumping the camera (sitting there with your finger on the shutter can create pretty blurry images, trust me I've tried). •

All of this is pretty basic so I don't blame you if you're saying 'No Shit Sherlock'. But what do you do if you find yourself in the middle of nowhere without a cable release??? •
•
On to the tip... A piece of duct tape and a small pea sized rock should do the trick:
Step 1) Cover your lens. Things are about to get bumpy

Step 2) With camera in 'Bulb' mode place the rock on the shutter button

Step 3) Tape that sucker (the rock!) down hard so the shutter fires and stays open

Step 4) Remove lens cap

Step 5) Use a stopwatch to time your exposure

Step 6) Replace the lens cap when your exposure is done

Step 7) Bask in the glory of long exposure awesomeness

This image from Laguna Pehoe in Torres del Paine was about 4 minutes and used a band aid from our lodge (I forgot the duct tape ?). #techtiptuesday #patagonia #ducttape
