This is a 20 foot drop to a creek. A small stream pours over and this leave stays stuck to the side as the water flows over. I was playing with a high shutter speed in low light (very cloudy day, and in a lot of shade) with a high ISO.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks, Harry. It was one of those, "I know what I want it to look like, I just don't know if I can get it," shots. The main issue was leaning at an angle with no support or railing to prevent me falling the 20 feet over the edge. The funny thing is I could of fallen and broken some bones, but I would of been more pissed about breaking my camera and the lens.:D

    Neat shots thumb.gifthumb.gif


    I wonder how it would look if you went the other way? IOW, if you would have gone with a speed slower than 1/10 sec? You might have had to stabilize your camera, but it would have had a kewl effect on the flowing water.

    Thanks.

    I wanted to try it that way too, but there was no way to stabilize the camera for that shot. I'd have to be too far away and then be forced to massively crop the shot.
