Photography of Waterfall

October 8, 2010

During my journey in Scotland I’ve seen a lot of waterfalls. Usually it was too bright to make a proper photo of the, but one time I had a chance to visit Falls of Dochart in the evening and get some nice shots. In addition, there was a lighten bridge and some puddles of still water, so I played with running and still water in a picture. It wasn’t easy to find interesting angles, but more difficult was to find proper white balance. To keep ISO as low as possible I’ve used tripod and to make silk water I’ve used long shutter speed.

As it was very bright day I was able to try 1/1000 shutter speed – never tried that before and it was really cool experience.

Today I remembered that I live in a beautiful city of Vienna, so I decided to go the city center and take some photos. I was going there with a friend and it was his first time in Vienna, so I didn’t have enough of time to look for a perfect shot. It’s not that we were running everywhere, just it wasn’t that easy for me to ‘see’ something.

Since last time (and first time) I’ve been photo shooting outside, lots of things had changed. First time I’ve been outside with my camera I was really shy to even take it out of my bag. I felt uncomfortable to sit on my knees, because I was thinking what the other people will think about me (I know – that sounds silly). This time I wasn’t shy anymore. I haven’t even noticed that I’m already sitting in the middle of the city and trying to get the ‘perfect’ shot. I didn’t worry at all – it felt so natural to do so!
