there was a few questions about the waterfalls in the latest competition,well i always say minimal photoshopping meaning light etc,the thought was that both were shopped on a photoshop program.....well to put everyone mind at ease,neither were.......all thats required is a decent fall and a bit of knowhow....i didn't have a clue so i asked guyzer earlier this year,he generously put me on the right lines

to get the effect all you need is a DLSR and a tripod,you simply slow your shutter speed right down until you get the desried effect,its not an exact science so a bit of experimenting needs to be done(with the shutter speed).i say DLSR but no doubt some compacts have the facilty to do this

the tripod is so that with such a slow shutter speed theres no camera shake whatsoever

to be honest,and i might be wrong.....i'm not sure that that effect can be achieved in photoshop

I didn't even consider that it had been chopped - I've tried waterfalls before at various speeds for droplets to sheet effects.

Well done on winning. It got my vote of the two I was considering ;)
