In the days of film pho­tog­ra­phy, movies were films, or motion pic­tures, and stills were single-frame images. We don’t use the word “still” much any­more, but it makes a lot of sense to me as the name for this group of images. They are, of course, indi­vid­ual “still” images. But more than that, they are long expo­sures that cap­ture a land­scape only the cam­era can see. While recod­ing the image, the cam­era is “still” while the land­scape moves in front of it. And the result­ing image con­veys a sense of “still”-ness that we as observers may feel, but only the cam­era can see.

Don’t panic – More pic­tures will be added to this gallery as I write addi­tional posts about images from my Still portfolio.
