Kevin is a young photographer from Connecticut. He is currently a graphic design student at the University of Bridgeport. In one of his interviews he said that he really really likes long exposures and he explained how he doeas it and why he likes them so much - "I use a tripod, since the exposure is so long, it would be blurry otherwise. Unlike using a narrow depth of field with a blurred background in shorter exposures with large apertures, in long exposure photography the subject is emphasized with a wide depth of field. By allowing water to flow still or letting clouds blur together, you can bring out the subject of the photo by decreasing the distraction of the background (and at the same time making it more beautiful). Star trails from long exposures bring out your photography subject more too, since the subject will be the only sharp object." he also says that he personally prefers black and white work to colour, but that doesn't make him any different. Also, here are some other questions that caught my eye:
Water is simply amazing. Its a great representation of time in photographs.
What lens would you recommend for landscape photography?
That’s sorta difficult to say when currently I’m just working off my 18-55 kit lens and 55-300 telephoto. I guess I could go online right now and find you guys a good one but since this is “Teenage Photography” and you guys are probably all in the same boat I am with money, that’s probably not necessary. Anyways I usually end up using a very low focal length but with something in the foreground or taking up most of the frame. With the low focal length you will really get the feel of dimension.
