Valedictorian of YouTube University

It is no secret that what information I need to know is much greater than what I actually know. Since my curiosity outweighs my intelligence, I am a regular attendee of the University of YouTube.

If and when I do not know something, I turn to YouTube and almost always I find my answers. In fact, I cannot think of a time yet when somebody somewhere hasn’t had the same questions I have and did not post a solution on YouTube.

Recently I have been trying to learn the capabilities of the camera on my cell phone. Specifically, I wanted to know if there was some method for recording long exposure images. Sure enough, the answer was on YouTube. I tried it and it worked. Contact me if you me to explain how to do create long exposures.

Today I am sharing before and after images illustrating how this works with a cell phone. Both images were recorded at the dam in Frederika. The first image was the standard stop action photo and the second image was the long exposure.

Note: The images were not to showcase how pretty the dam is when the water is high (it is not pretty). Instead, the photos simply show how well the cell phone can create long exposures.
