I don't agree that some are to slow, but what do I know.
To the D70 owner:
You can slow you shutter down significantly if you use you camera's "m" mode which gives you complete control. I would also switch to RAW and under or over expose. Just a thought. You can over/under expose JPG too if you prefer

In reply to: that looks awsome, but what is it? the orange thing that is. is it fire?
No fire, just alpenglow on a crag in the Southern Sierra, (Domelands).

OK, so check this scenario. Its the middle of the day, you've got a powerful strobe (800ws or greater) and preferrably some sort of shading(from leaves or other light modifiers). Slap a circular polarizer on your lens (or the nd filter of your choice) and fire away. You can get the ambient exposure down to pretty slow shutter speeds quite easily this way. Your subject wont be blurry, but your background will (especially if you or an assistant jiggle the camera).

Not exactly what I did for the above photo, but the same idea. The photo above was shot at dusk/evening rendering the need for a powerful strobe and polarizer unnecessary.

Here's another attempt. This is the ironman traverse at night. I set up with a tripod and a 15 sec (longest I can do) exposure. I think it was 2.8 and ASA (equivalent?) 50. I also tried 400. All the lighting is from my headlamp. I was hoping to get a heel hook in better, but I guess I wasn't looking at it enough to make it show up. (and actually I wasn't heel hooking yet in this sequence, but in the ones where I was, it didn't show up anyway)

I shot the picture and my friend ran around me using a flash to freeze me in different places.

Alpine--awesome photo. That's a great technique using the flash to freeze the action up close while the backround, out of flash range, is allowed to be blurred a bit. Nice work!

Hai,
Just got back from Bolivia, here's my submission for the long-exposure assignment:
ISO 1600 and counted till 320 till I released my shutter-button.
Subject on the picture: our base camp, the night before we opened a new route on Ascarani (5600m), the mountain you see left in the back.

Cheers,
