A Waterfall Shot - Without The Blurr

[Up North Photos]

I'm not a big fan of adding blurr to moving water so i worked this scene to show what was there naturally. The falls is at Forge Pond in Westport MA.

I wasn't sure about the style of vignette, but then i realized that it really works given some of the foreground elements in the shade. Nicely done, and it is nice to see a waterfall shot without long shutter speeds. Have not seen one for a long time! Nice!

Hello plangereis, thanks it really is a techinique that's seldom used anymore. Glad you enjoyed.

It looks really nice UpNorth. I've gotten so used to seeing the silky water falls that it's refreshing to see one captured normally. Love the light vignette too. NIce job!

Thank you mymaison97, it is quite a powerful waterfall that was once used to power a mill.

I just realized that when you give waterfalls that silken appearance, you eliminate the sound effects. I hear the water much better in this photo and I sense that water is going places! Probably out to sea only to return as snow in Alaska.
