We're suckers for a good long exposure, and Flickr user mosley.brian has taken a few nice ones recently. Unlike HDR, a multiple exposure process done either in camera or in Photoshop, long exposures can capture the depth of lighting and tones in a similar way (with the bonus of great lines of movement), but stays clear of the user-manipulated garishness HDR usually slips in to. And frankly, we have to admire someone setting up a tripod and patiently waiting for the shutter to run its course (often many times in trial and error) in the dead of winter. Mosley.brian's shot of the Sumner School here is a testament to that patience. EXIF.

"HDR: un-natural crappiness"
Only if you don't know how to use it right.
