the article is excellent. Thanks Keith. However, his pictures are good because he captured them using a p65, but still not that exciting. The firefall at yosemite is much more intriguing, but you need to be there at the right season and the right moment with the right weather.

I have a set of water flowing images here - http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/Gallery/flowing_water/index.htmlThe shooting data is displayed with each image so you can see the shutter speed used to blur the water in each case. Obviously the degree of blur depends on both the shutter speed and the speed at which the water is flowing, as well as the magnification (distance and focal length), but in these images shutter speeds range from about 1/2s to 1/25s. Too slow a speed and you lose all detail, too fast a speed and the water looks frozen. With the right speed you get a sense of motion in the water. The same considerations apply to larger waterfalls too! |
