I’m very happy to present my new book - “Take Your Time - the art and craft of long exposure photography”

Review for Take Your Time - Melanie Chalk.png

This, my second book on photography is aimed at anyone who wants to take better long exposure images. Lavishly illustrated with images from around the globe, “Take Your Time - the art and craft of long exposure photography” looks at the many different techniques which long exposure encompasses, kit to help you get those dreamy shots, and much more!

All the images in the book also have technical details such as shutter speed, aperture and ISO underneath, to further aid you in seeing how these shots were captured.

Most of the images are also supported by map references to the Google Map below, so if you get the itch to try and capture one of the shots you see yourself, you know where to go!

Amazon links are provided to all the kit mentioned, so you can get it yourself if the GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) itch needs scratching :))
