Another Simple Rule for Shooting Waterfalls


If you look through nature photography web sites or magazines like Outdoor Photographer, you notice that most waterfall shots were taken from above the falls looking down. To make your waterfall image more interesting try to get the shot that no one else has gotten, looking up at the waterfall from the middle of the river. Sometimes a slightly different perspective can make a big difference.

The exposure was taken at 70mm, f/16 for 10 seconds at ISO 100 using a Singh-Ray Vari-ND-Duo neutral density and warming polarizer filter.
