Welcome back this week I head to Fantail falls but don't realize I'm actually at Pyke Creek. I guess that's why I couldn't find the waterfall.

    What a great little river - and photos to match. Did you use a polariser? And did you deliberately have your tripod at full height on the first shot you showed where you were setting up? If so, what was your thinking?

    • @jameshalfacre
      @jameshalfacre Год назад

      Thanks for watching Tim, I did have a polarizer on, I almost always have one on when I photograph water. I like to be able to dial in how much reflection I want or don't want in the scene. Tripod position was deliberate for a few reasons; I wanted the back fall to show a bit more, if I went to low I would loose it or just get a tiny bit. Second going to low was giving me too much sky behind/through the trees and that was distracting to me. Great questions and thanks for asking I'll try to talk through these things a bit more in future videos.
