Photo of the Day – 7 October 2016: Aira Force

Posted on 7th October 2016 by Admin under Photograph, Technique

After a few days when it had been sunny, it turned overcast.  There was no chance of the light being suitable for a wider view of the landscape, but the conditions were perfect for this waterfall.  It is Aira Force which has a fall of around 20 metres.

There is a light area at the top where a bridge crosses the ravine and a dull day makes it easier to control the highlights.  I helped it by using a soft two stop neutral density graduated filter, as well as a three stop neutral density filter to blur the water.  I am aware that some do not like the “cotton wool” effect, but for me it looked better with a two second exposure.
