Just got this back on the weekend...

I kinda like the foamy look of the water, but the colors came out a lot better in other faster shots...

bigbadburt · 07-22-2003, 01:21 AM

Try and crop it down to just get the water if ya dont like the color
thats a really sweet picture dude!

Very nice. I've always been a sucker for long exposures on water

.

I want to get out to that waterfall deally that's near the Chief with a tripod and shoot half a roll.

.glib · 07-22-2003, 01:30 AM

Oh BTW, what shutter speed was that at?

Jaysin · 07-22-2003, 01:46 AM

To the best of my recolection that was 8 seconds...

I never write anything down though, so it may have been 10 :p

That's from a creek that crosses the Nahatlatch forest service road about 12km from Boston Bar... Sorry I don't know the creek name.

Nice shot eeyun. 8 seconds is a really long time if you were looking for the streaming water effect. Depending on the light, 1/2 second would have been plenty to get the effect and then the colours wouldn't be washed out. How do you feel about the lens flare?

Thanks fergs. I have a couple 1/2 sec shots because I was told that would be reasonable speed to try, but they're on a roll I haven't developped yet. I think the ISO 800 film I was using was a little fast too (could be wrong though).

And as for the lens flare... I feel pissed off about it!

How can I avoid it? Just sheild the lens? Is that what a lens hood is is for?

Cheers

A polarizer would have killed that too methinks.

What would you need to do to take a pic of rain and capture the stillness of the rain? Like on some commercials?

I'm really not too sure. I think it needs to be a very hard rain for one, and then I think maybe a remote flash setup. Without flash, the rain doesn't show up, and with an on-camera flash (even with one that's on a cable so you can hold it a bit off to the side like mine) it still doesn't show up very well.

Kevan · 07-22-2003, 07:17 PM

Hmmm. Have you seen that commercial where there in a parking lot and taking pictures of stuff and its like "beauty is everywhere" but in every pic the rain stops? I think it was a digi cam of some sort.....maybe just false advertising. Id love a camera like that....mines just an old *and i mean OLD* 35mm. I cant take action shots cuz if you move it like an inch you have to re-set the apature, and it takes awhile to focus, its really touchy.
