There was a fishing/observation platform a short distance from the waterfall so I set my tripod up on this in order to provide a firm base for my equipment and me, bearing in mind my own health and safety, whilst I was adjusting settings etc., I did not want any danger of slipping into the water or tripping over riverbank debris or spare equipment so made sure my bag was in a safe place. The longer lens also enable me to set up at a safe distance.
The first photo at the top used 1/5 of a second and has the effect of blurring the water making it appear white. I have gradually reduced shutter speed with the last one at 1/250, slowing down the water until it appears almost static.
Hey
ReplyDeleteSome great shots showing the effect of longer shutter times on moving water.
Did the shoot as well as you hoped?
Keep snapping away

Hi
ReplyDeleteGood use of bridge software to evidence settings used.
1.4,1.6 1.7, 1.8 and what about health and safety near the water, with yourself and the kit, add it in and get 1.9 as well.
