Waterfall

by Corker2211

This is another try at shooting the same Image as before, but trying to "blur" the Waterfall using settings that were instructed to me.

I think that I'm getting it right, but not quite right. I think that the Image is a bit over-exposed with the bright sun. This time I had the sun to my back and there is no "Sun Flare." Any comments are welcome, as before.

To achieve these milky waterfall effects, I think you have to use grey filters. On such a sunny day, doesn't matter how you force your system to go for a long exposure time, it will still be too short. Withut filter you also loose the possibility to play with the Dof. So recommendation would be, to use standard settings on your camera but an ND2 to ND3 grey filter. Your exposure time increases by the factor 100 (ND2) or 1000 (ND3). And you then need a really good tripod and ideale a remote control (or at least using the 2 sec. timer. In addition, I would recommend some post processing where you can also blur the milky parts a bit more and increase the sharpness of the non-blured parts.
