This is my first attempt at this kind of shot. Opinions and suggestions are very welcome. Settings are Tv 1" ISO of 100 at 1/32, using my D60 on a tripod with a Sigma 28-80 mini-zoom macro. with a remote shutter release cable. wanted to capture a soft look on the waterfall.

Your "frame" makes this a very interesting shot. I want to try and get a lovely soft waterfall like that too but we haven't had rain for months and months so there's no water cascading near us at the moment.

Very nice shot. did you crop out some of the waterfall? It looks there could be a little more.

Good eye, there is a little more to the waterfall, but, i was attempting to frame the flower with the waterfall behind it. and thanks for the kind words.

I like it :D Did you have a slight fill flash Bald? How were the flowers and log lit?

thanks, I really appreciate your input, and no, I didnt have any flash. It was natural light. It was a cloudy day, but, what light we had from the sun, was behind me.
