Long Exposure Eruptions – Volcano Photography

slow shutter Iceland volcano

When your local volcano erupts, grab your camera and tripod and head out for a Long Exposure adventure. There is nothing like being with other photographers who want to be there until it gets dark, so choose your company wisely.
