Long exposure

Long Exposure photos are taken with a slow shutter speed and normally with some motion in the image as well to add a blur of the subject or subjects, creating a cool looking effect.

This results normally in a negative shadow image that shows differences in shade depending on how transparent the object that was place on top was. Originally having trained in painting, she had expressed an early interest in abstraction. Derges then turned to cameraless photography after having some frustration with the way that the  "the camera always separat...
