This has to be one of the best examples of long exposure water photos I've seen. May I ask what NDF you used on the shot?

Hi George, I thought I replied to you yesterday but the coment isn't here. Anyway, thank you so much for the kind words, I used a 4x4 10 stop ND made by Lee. There's a cheaper one made by, I forget, but it creates a green cast to your images which is really hard to get out in RAW.

Another beautiful capture ! I have seen those falls but your image makes them look better then they really are . You were standing in the right spot to do them justice. Well done !
Cheers,

Thank you Carol! I was lucky to have the water be foamy so it just swirled around alot, so I said to myself that might result in an interesting long exposure, and it did. Thank you again!

Thank you, those specific words mean a lot to me, conveying tranquility in a crazy world is my goal with my photography.

Thank you Steve, although I have tried to do HDR with long exposures, I doubtI tried that heere it was a while ago, maybe I did, but generally 30 second exposures and HDR are a tough thing, not impossible, but the results in my eperience aren't always great, so, short answer, I forget if I did or not on this one. Thanks again!

I want to be there . . . to feel the lift and movement . . . to experience the sense of calm . . . to be carried away in the power of the moment . . . and to breathe in the cool, damp air. Thank you.
