In this article, I’m going to teach you all about long exposures and show you how to use them for stunning photographic results. WHAT IS A LONG EXPOSURE?

I was visiting Ukraine at the end of last summer and stayed a few days in Kyiv. People called it the "New Berlin" back then and in fact it was a bustling city and daily life was as normal as it could possibly be. In many ways I even preferred Kyiv over Berlin, which has gotten so mediocre in recent years. Only a few months later the city was under attack with scores of people killed in the outskirts of Kyiv by Russian troops. I still can not wrap my head around that. It’s heartbreaking to think about all the lovely people there and the suffering that they have to endure. I know its difficult to enjoy these images from another time, but it’s a reminder how fragile and precious…

A few years ago, I came across an app that lets you make “tiny planets” out of your pictures. The examples I saw looked cool, and it was a free app, so I figured I might as well give it a try to see how it worked. I quickly learned that you had to use panorama photos since the app basically wrapped your image in a circle and made the bottom of the picture the ground of your new photographic “planet.” My particular test images were fun to look at but they were still pretty wonky, and you could tell they were made by someone who didn’t really know what they were doing. At that point, I assumed that full 360-degree images were probably too technically difficult (at least for…
