What’s Your Preference?

I wish I had a waterproof camera, when you set up your camera near the falls, its like there is a ton of rain, was even chicken to take this shot - not a very long exposure but still, dunno if I am gonna be "brave" enough to try it at night - may have to become a photo shop guru and turn day into night.

You'' have to get you a rain cover for your camera. They are super cheap!!

Hmm, I will see if I can find one here - they SHOULD be easy to find, but lets hope...I iwll start hunting today... And all that mist is super crazy - it makes part of the photo cloudy...

Excellent job, and super silky water. I'd love to see more.

so many colours, the silky water.. as well as the way you've composed this makes it great! If you're still there get that rain cover and jump on the Maid of the Mist .. I know everyone would love that perspective.. thx for sharing this at your camera's peril

Nice shot. I've been there, done that too, but not with the dslr...in fact, it's been about 40 years. I like this shot a lot.

Wow...Great capture...
and yeah....capturing Niagara at night is totally worth it... I had been there recently and posted a couple of pics here in the forum too...
I thought with my amateur phtography skills the photos turned out prettty good. I am sure you will do much better.

Looking forward to seeing the night pics....

Well, they did not have a proper camera shop any where near where I am sooooo, I may not get the ones at night...

Unless I can do it with a fast shutter speed.
