Soft Waterfall

[DivotMaker]

Went for a long drive today, and ended up driving by this...at mile marker 9.

My first decent timed exposure, during the middle of the day, with flowing water...

Curious about:

Composition?
Exposure?
Lighting?
What would you have done different?
How could I have done this better?



Camera: Nikon D90
Exposure: 0.8
Aperture: f/22.0
Focal Length: 50 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Exposure Bias: -5 EV
Flash: No Flash

Nice shot you have. Just for my preference, I maybe will enhance a tad the colours in the background, it looks flat to me. I dunno you might not like it. Very good DOF too. I really like the long shutter speed on the waterfalls, it really works for me. Overall, its worth keeping this shot.

Very good shot! If i'm not mistaken those falls are right next to hwy near crater lake in oregon, right?

[DivotMaker]

Great Idea neoHUNTER.... I will have to give that a shot.


Great EYE - craig jensen ... you nailed the location!


Thanks for the comments!

I really like this shot -- the long exposure works very well. The only slight fly in the ointment to me is the tree-trunk which kind of distracts me from the waterfall itself; the dark trunk against the light water takes my attention away from the water... but a minor point; it's a great capture overall.
