Ocean City beach is one of the popular beaches in New Jersey. You will enjoy eight miles of oceanfront beaches that serve as the centerpiece of summers and a year-round destination for families, individuals, surfers, fishermen, walkers, runners and more.

This is the third installment of my “12 Shades” series where I try to pick one location to capture the same landscape every month for a year. These are my favorite 12 Long Exposure images of the beautiful beach. If you are new to long-exposure photography, this is what it means – long exposure refers to a photographic style or a technique that involves using long exposures, or slow shutter speeds. By doing so, we’re able to blur moving elements such as water, cars, or clouds. It is a great technique to capture striking landscape photos. 

You would think that once a month going to a specific location would be an easy task. But, I found that such projects need lot of dedication and effort. Firstly, Ocean City is almost 2 hour drive for me, and secondly planning it on free weekends is very difficult. It was worth all the pain and effort to complete this project.

Here are the 12 beautiful images of famous fishing pier on Ocean City beach that showcases the beauty of both the beach and the Long Exposure technique.
