Default The Beautiful Lightspout Waterfall

This is one I took this weekend its of the Lightspout Waterfall at Church Stretton in the Shropshire hills, U.K. Took this without a tripod and it was a very bright day, so it was quite difficult to get the right shutter speed to blurr the waterfall. Hope it works for you.

Lightspout Warerfall


Thanks for looking

As always your work is stunning, I wish it were mine.
Great work mate, love the colors, composition and lighting. You did a great job without a tripod.
Thanks for making me smile.
David.

Hope it works for you.

An extremely difficult shot handheld and in bright sunshine, but you pretty well got it Dave.
Its a fantastic location and one to revisit perhaps under better circumstances but yes, it works for me

Great results considering the conditions you had, I am suprised that it came out so well.

Obviously it was a bright day, and to slow it down enough, handheld, like that and get such a good shot was great. Well done.

Michael
