Seljalandsfoss has a narrow cascade but is one of Iceland's highest waterfalls, at 63 meters. The waterfall is highly picturesque and has the rare distinction that one can actually walk behind it. Unfortunately, this picture was taken in January and we were not allowed behind the falls.Time
This picture was taken around noon.Lighting
we were there on an overcast day with snow showersEquipment

I am now into landscape photography and love shooting waterfallsEditing
Very little post processing was done other than some sharpening and noise reduction in PhotoShop.In my camera bag
I used to carry three Canon 1DX's with a full assortment of large glass: 400mm f/2.8; 200-400mm f/4; 300mm etc. but since retiring as a sports photographer, I now carry a Canon 5D mark III with three lenses: 8-15mm f/4 which I used about 90% of the time; 17-40mm f/4 which I use about 25% of the time and an 24-105mm f/2.8Feedback
I usually shoot in RAW mode and shoot a 3 bracketed image using the 5D's HDR capability. I try shooting both high speed to freeze the action and very slow speed to get a more "cotton" affect.
