Learn how to use long exposures to enhance your architecture and landscape photography. We'll cover what gear you need, how to use ND filters, and how to add depth and emotion to your images. We will also discuss using long exposures in street and abstract photography, and touch on basic editing in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.

Rachael was clearly passionate about photography. I hadn't used my camera in months and this reignited the spark I once felt for photography.”
