Well, I think whenever you have a subject which is moving and therefore
fills different regions of the frame at different instants of time, you
call for multiple exposure. However, in Camron Hood's submission, it is
the water which is the only moving subject. This photograph can be created
by a long exposure also but the only problem with that is that the dark
coloured rocks will appear too bright destroying the contrast in the
photograph. I also think that the light was too low while the snap was
taken and the cloudy filter added up to the myterious nature of the
photograph. I may be wrong but I shall be very happy if somebody tells me
the truth.
With best regards,
Ayash Kanto.
