There are a lot of different possibilities to move forward wi
th aesthetically when dealing with long exposure light-controlled situations. Jan Wöllert and Jörg Miedza have become masters at dealing with long exposure LIGHT DESIGN. I'm emphasizing the "design" because this obviously took some careful and precise planning and a lot of experimentation. But with every great photograph there is a starting point. Usually when you deal with a stationary camera with moving light source(s) the common starting point is setting up your camera and just attempting to get a good trail of light. As you move on there is the potential to design and stage situations that create a very unique and "unreal" situation.

This comment is also for Ben, but I encourage everyone to take a look at this website:

Weinberger's photos were taken by exposing the film for longer periods twice (once during the day, once at night), so you get this really bizarre effect where city/street lights are shining while the rest of the scene looks like it was photographed during the day, though usually dusk time. Granted we don't live in a huge city with skyscrapers, it might be an interesting exercise to explore if you're thinking about using long exposure times, Ben.
Hope this helps!
