Got Some Time On Your Hands?

Digital cameras are not well suited for extended exposures.  The longer the sensor is exposing, the greater the noise.  This isn't a huge issue with most exposures, but what if you needed a very long exposure?  What if you needed a 6 month exposure?


Film is your answer.  More specifically, paper is your answer.  This post about creating a 6 month long exposure using a home made pinhole camera is pretty cool.  The photographer used it to create an image tracking the sun's path.  Also, check out the post with instructions on creating your very own super long exposure.


The coolest part is the use of photographic printing paper to capture the image and then scanning the undeveloped paper.  Amazing!
