The 90 Degree Falls Photo

Photographer’s Note

You must be wondering. Why 90 degree??
Because these really do a 90 angle.

The water flows down the hill in the direction of the camera. Then it hits a natural inclined gutter made of shale rock (exactly where you can see those small strings of water) and flows to the river. It's like a natural water slide but the water is to cold to try it.

I'm posting a workshop to show the 90 degree corner.

Photo taken with my new tripod and in raw format. Colors were adjusted photoshop camera raw then cropped and resized.

Here are camera settings:
Exposure time: 1/6
F-stop: 18.0
ISO speed: 400
Exposure mode: Manual
White balance: Auto
Metering mode: Spot

olá david,
gosto muito desta cascata. o local todo ele rodeado de tons de verde e o efeito que criaste na água da cascata combinam muito bem num contraste entre o verde e o branco. a composição está muito boa tal como a nitidez. parabéns!
PS: uma nota interessante acompanhada de um workshop para a exemplificar melhor é sempre uma boa ideia.
Abraço
pedro
