This was shot at night but it makes sense to update the post about trying to do this at high noon... Axton What a great shot, that is a pic one can hand over a mantel. Veryy nice. Cool thing is you shot it with the body I use www.Jeffreyantonphotography.com

Thanks. It was shot 7/30/11 about 8:15 pm. It is set down in a ravine in the woods so it was quite dark... All ambient lighting..

Is the procedture the same except for using the NDF The procedure would basically be the same.. The Neutral Density Filter is making things "darker" so you can shoot this effect in bright daylight.. If you need to leave your shutter open in bright sunlight/daylight, even a really small aperture or low ISO may not be enough to avoid over-exposure so the NDF cuts down on the amount of light coming into the camera...

One thing I found out in a trip to yellowstone is the long exposures are a bad idea when its a raging fall, theres so much water coming over its just a white blop on the picture, I just do a lot of bracketing shutter speeds to see what they all do!

Jon_Doh Senior Member  More info | Sep 01, 2011 11:19 | #13 ND filter (at least 2 stops), slow ISO and shutter speed of 1/2 sec or more are the keys to nice smooth water. I use a Kodak Brownie

I think shooting at night (without ND filter) would work nicely too, but great advice! Facebook
