Fish in an aquarium. Some will move and stop, some will drift, and some will who knows what.

Camera on tripod in an interesting location in the dark, B at f8 or so, and walk around in the picture and light things with a hand held flash. Especially back lit. Sparklers, etc. Fun.

I´m in a project of long exposure photography and every month we need to present 3 photos for a filter of the project. I´m counting on some of you to give me some great ideas of pictures that will really be different and creative. I´m a little square and need some help in creativity. I´m adding one of the photos that I took to the last filter and it was accepted.
If you can't come up with ideas of your own, why do you sign up for such a thing? Trying to give yourself a bit more stress?

I have done many pictures of falling dominoes, moving dice, moving sugar over strawberries, etc. The thing is that they are always asking for more creative ideas and that is why I consulted the forum. Thank you.

How about getting a X4 ND 10 Stop. I purchased one and they are fantastic with no color change from what I can see. It is made by Breakthrough Photography. Depending on the sized needed, they are around $159. Love mine.

It is really cool. Of course it was popular back then because that's all a lot of the zooms did well.

In the haze of my recollection, I completely forgot about that - so much for better living through chemistry. . .

Here's an idea: How about those huge wind generators with a long exposure showing movement of the blades? During daylight you'd need to use a 10 stop filter to achieve any movement but you probably have one if you're doing a year long project on long exposure.

Try using a dark red filter on landscape with various time exposures. You should be able to get nice infrared effect, then choose your best one for presentation on this forum.

There have been a couple of people that have taken star trails photos, but the photos can not be edited and to get a good star trail photo I believe you have to take many and join them together.
Who needs star trails? For a good night time long exposure shot all you need is a wide angle lens, tripod, and 25 seconds.
