Artist's Comments

My first attempt on a scenery like this one.
Seen a lot of these shots and I always wanted to try, long exposure geek as I am =].
I didn't think that we had something even near a waterfall, rapid or what's it called. But I stumbled upon one on the Internet the other day, took just 20 minutes by car. The water was really low right now though, so I guess I will go back at springtime.

This was the last shot I took at this location before it started to rain heavily, with thunder and lightning to really scare me out of there.
Was quite a balance act to get this shot on all the slippery rocks. Was putting the tripod in the middle of the running water after putting on the 10sec delay. Couldn't see where I was aiming and when I looked at it on the LCD afterwards I thought I managed to get the whole rock in the foreground as I hoped, but in the PP work I had to crop it(wanted it in landscape view) due to the vignetting.

Shot in raw, minor adjustments in Lightroom before cropping it in CS3, resize then sharpening it as usual.

Full view please.

Excellent shot. I've always wanted to try one of these as well. I'm hoping to venture out near some falls soon so I can try it too.

nice! Em...40D and Canon 10-22?? New stuff?

So what you're thinking about 10-22? Much better than sigma's one? and if the angle on 40D wider than 400D?
