A long exposure photograph captures a ballerina dancer's silhouette in midair as she walks past the camera, creating a ghostly trail of motion blur behind her. The dancer's graceful pose is visible in her initial profile position, while multiple transparent versions of her form appear in a line extending behind her, showing her movement through the frame. The background remains sharp and clear, unaffected by the motion blur that follows the dancer's path. Long exposure photography with slow shutter speed creates intentional motion blur against a crisp background.
