Since we have been posting/commenting on waterfall pictures quite a bit lately, I thought I might post one I hiked to a month or so back. It is in Southern Illinois. It was overcast and I did use a ND8 filter on my Canon S2IS.

Would love to know what you all think.

Thanks,

Great shot. What settings did you use and what was the light like?

Spur,

The settings were:

Aperature: f/8
Focal length 6mm
Exposure: 1.6 seconds

I think that is really neat looking. A ghostly quality. Personally, I would rather not be able to see through the water. Therefore, I would set a faster shutter speed. Do you have to do it so long because of the strength of the filter?

Thanks Edd.
I loved Tecumseh and the flowers added to the shot for me. I just like to see some color and they were just enough.

That is a very good example of that effect, but I think I would rather see it as it really was, or more like it was. :)

i faster shutter speed would have froze the water and you would have been able to see behind it better then with a slower one.

Nicely done, the water looks like silk.
