Rene,

Thank you, thank you for sharing these links. I came across his work some time ago but didn't make a note of it and now I know who it is!

He's remarkable.

He has three youtube videos that show him at work. Keith Carter used him as an example in the Santa Fe Workshop I took in July.

 

Youtube links (long but worth it)

A documentary about the Russian photographer Alexey Titarenko from St. Petersburg. produced by 'IMAGE ET COMPAGNIE' for the French-German TV Channel ARTE.

Subject: Re: First Photographic Emulsions Exposure Time?

 

well getting some blury, ghost-like images of people is my intention.

 

regarding gear, I have an +3 ND and a polarizer. Lwest iso is 100 but I can overexpose one stop. Then there are the local club members that can easily lent me oen more ND, I ahve a bunck of adpaters to fit all dimensions form 42 to 77....

 

So...what you'd be the first camera speed to try? (the go from there since we are talking digital)

 

and I am not sure...is there an exposure reciprocity issue with digital sensors?

I'd opine that the exposure times would have to be quite a bit longer than 2 seconds for pedestrian traffic and bystanders to "disappear"  from an exposure. I'd probably go for a minute or three or more. Anyone who is loitering (such as the shoeshine scene in a "famous" photograph pretty much devoid of anything that moved - or a scene in Grand Central Station where again there is little evidence of human presence) will of course still be visible albeit maybe a bit blurry - nless it is a sleeting individual. :) just my opinion ... to get such long exposure times at relatively high sensor speeds you'd probably use neutral density filters ... or maybe a couple of stacked  partially crossed polarizers .
