some long exposure waterfall shots

Jeff Howard says:

Spent a few hours yesterday shooting some waterfalls. Took a bunch of HDR shots with exposures ranging from 5-10 seconds. The HDR effect is a bit subtle but I'm really happy with how they turned out. Wasn't sure if it would give a weird effect to the water with all the motion involved, but if anything I think it enhanced the smooth look that the long exposure gives.

Here are two of my favourites from the day:

	claustral says: Very unusual to see long exposures of wild places combined with shallow DoF. However you did it, well done for thinking of this approach! Posted 41 months ago. (permalink)

	KidDocOne says: Very nice. How did you bracket the long exposures? Posted 39 months ago. (permalink)
	Jeff Howard says: Thanks. @Kulu - appreciate the vote of confidence. am actually submitting it for one. fingers crossed it gets in, but a cover is probably wishful thinking. @KidDocOne - If I remember correctly I think I went from -1 to +2 with even steps and then shot a few more with some longer exposures to add to the mix.
