nice ghost capture!
this one I like most out of the blurry series.
as for your curious question: the answer is not so easy, a bit philosophical question..
of course the shutter stays open longer under low light conditions - this is the obvious part.
but does the picture take longer to come out?
difficult!
I mean it depends of course on when you start measuring the "howlongtime"
if you take the time from pressing the red button till it comes out, then of course it takes longer cause the exposure time is of course longer under low light conditions.
but this is the obvious part, certainly not what you meant.
so you probably mean the time between putting the film into the camera and the picture coming out - right?
tricky question really!
I really think there is no general answer to this - it depends very much on the character/mood of the photographer, most people probably take pictures faster under good light conditions, they dont think so much about a possibly wasted shot, those who focus manually certainly can do this faster with enough light too... but on the other hand exactly this can have the opposite effect - knowing that the picture will be blurred anyway cause of the long exposure time (if you dont use a tripod), one could just decide to not waste time with the focussing and just press the button quicker than under good light conditions... so many subjective factors influencing the "howlong" result.
I really think there is no universally valid answer to your question.
but thankyou for making me think!
I like that
and I like this ghost picture
thanx!

^ thanks for your reply! i guess you're right, there's no universally valid answer!
