Great, a photo that deserves to be in this "Project", i been surfing thru photos in this project, and have only come accross 3 or 4 shots that are obviously taken over 2mins! There are alot of ppl that need to understand what "Time Lapse" Photography is. This shot is brilliant, it has all the hallmarks for a great shot, tho maybe u might try it agian where the ambient lighting is lower, to non existent, say out of the town/city. Kindly, Lachlan Rex

i like the lines and drops of water in this one. my eyes want a little more DOF though in the side leaves and the lower leaves.

i wish people would explain when they rate so low, as they should explain with any rating.

anyway, i think this image would be stronger if it had more depth to it...the forground isn't really seperated from the background. the image is quite busy with all the different colors, shapes, and movements. i DO love seeing water movement on film though. if this is a place easily accessible to you, you ought to go back there and just try a bunch of different compositions, see what you like the most. a few steps closer and a wider lens may prove to give some good results.

you can kind of see some stars going round in the upper left corner. it would have been better if the exposure wasn't so long, more stars would have turned up.

The pool below the waterfall is very pleasing to the eye. Now that you have pointed it out, I see a picture within your picture. I rotated it two degrees to the left. Keep up the good work.

John, it looks like it leans to the right to me, too.

I've shot a good number of waterfalls in the last year or two. Waterfalls are kind of funny in that some look good with extremely high shutter speeds, some with slower shutter speeds. My intent here was to take it to the extreme in the long exposure direction, smoothing out the ripples in the pool below the waterfall.

Thank you all for your comments. I appreciate your time and input.

Martin

A beautiful waterfall - but perhaps a little too long an exposure. But the thing with waterfall shots (in my experience anyway) is that everyone likes different things - some like the water frozen in action, some love the blur created after several minutes exposure. I think that they can work well at about 1/8 to 1/4 - but that's just personal.

A shorter exposure and a slight counter clockwise rotation would improve this photo. I'm fussy about horizons and this one seems off to me. To my eyes, the whole picture seems to be leaning to the right.

Hi Martin,
cool shot, do you have anymore at slower shutter speeds? i don't know if it was possible or not, but judging from the ND it might have been, the only reason being that imho i think this could be improved by having a little more texture/flavour in the water, so it's not as hot/washed out in some spots. that said, i do love the smoothness and reflection you captured here at the bottom nice stuff!

John,

Initially, I was going to shoot this with black and white film. Given the constraints of not being able to get immediate feedback on my timing, I decided to go digital. It took about 4 shots to get my timing down with the person shooting the dart at the balloon.

I really like the way you modified the picture to black and white. When I posted the picture, I thought the balloon was an interesting part of the shot. Given your modification and the comment by Daniel Jarrett, I'm starting to think that it would be best to minimize/eliminate the balloon.

Thank you for your feedback. It gives me something to think about next time I set up to do a shot like this.

Hi Martin;

Can hardly beleive you caught this with a manual shutter. Great timing. Truly a decisive moment.

I was looking at it and thinking that what is so captivating is the shape of the balloon still being held by the water suspended in mid-air. I wondered what the image would look like in black and white with some of the emphasis taken off the balloon. Here is what I came up with. I cropped the image slightly to centre it. I'd be interested to know what you think.

Very cool. I know this might sound a little rediculous but that ballon is distracting and I'd like to see it not there but thats not really possible :\ Awesome shot...I've always wanted to try something like this. I tried it with some pool balls (check out my stuff and you can see).
