Making long exposure images is a fun and interesting project. As you might expect, there are several things you'll need to keep in mind before trying it. First, you'll need a tripod. Or, at least, a very stable surface. On one occasion I actually used a wall. The point is that it is pretty much impossible to hold a camera perfectly still for even a couple of seconds, and even a little camera shake can ruin your image. Next, I suggest using your camera's two second timer. By doing this, you once again reduce the risk of camera shake. Third, you'll need to decide if you want to shoot on Manual or Shutter Priority mode. Many find it easier to use Shutter Priority. That way, you can just set your exposure time to five seconds, for example, and let your camera figure out the rest. This usually works pretty well, but it has been my experience that sometimes parts of my image end up overexposed. Last, don't be afraid to experiment and have fun trying it out on your own!
