Great contest!

I loved this minimal composition. There are many images from this same spot and almost all of them were great - maybe because of the subject isolation - but this image was best of them all in my opinion. Photographer has used the rule of third and composed the frame well. Loved the mood of the image. The Black & White tone justifies the image. Congratulations!

winner

I received so many great entries for this contest and it was a very difficult task to choose the top 10, and that explains how difficult it must have been for me to choose a winner! This image stood out to me in particular. Sharp lines of the building meets the wavy and hazy clouds; the transition is so great! Composition wise the photographer has done a great job here. Well done and congratulations!

Cool Image! The photographer has captured an amazing mood and atmosphere here. With the right amount of shutter speed - 2 Seconds - we can see the movement of crazy waves but the clouds are still, adding more drama to the scene. Great composition and concept. The Black and White tone justifies the subject. Congratulations!

This image very simple yet very impactful. The gigantic bridge fading away in the fog on the Horizon is creating such a great visual connection with the viewer. The leading lines are spot-on. This image, being a Black and White image compliments the scene and does the justice to the photographer's composition. Overall, an awesome image, congratulations!

Brief

See more contest details

I see many long exposure images here, but I see relatively fewer images that are black and white. In this contest I would like you to show me your best long exposure shots in black and white. To keep it simple, any image that is taken at a shutter speed more than 1 second will be considered as a valid entry for this contest. The subject can be landscape, cityscape or any other genre appropriate for long exposure images. Manipulated and heavily post-processed images will not be judged, meaning the image has to be a single exposure shot and also the long exposure effect should not be a result of software techniques.
