 I assumed most entries on long exposure will be about lights or water, so I thought I try something with my hair...had hoped I could have used a slower shutterspeed but the flying hair effect could not be captured as I hoped...but it's still a slower shutterspeed than I would normally use ;) Used only one slightly lit softbox from the left for the atmosphere as it would have gotten too bright otherwise...

remarkable shot. I'm not sure about the composition. looks like a "dpc composition" to me. but the capture and look of this is great.

Looks like a water painting rather than a picture. Well done and love it!

I love the painterly feeling of this. The colors are gorgeous and her expression is intriguing.

Cool shot, nice pose, strong colors. But I don't see how a long exposure really helps here; I'd have preferred to see this with the motion frozen rather than blurred, or perhaps it's simply not blurred enough. The overall effect is one of softening--there should be something sharper here. Motion blur doesn't have to mean that nothing is well focused. (6)
