In this week’s episode, we discuss the best shutter speed for your waterfall and seascape photography. Identifying a universal combination of camera settings that would apply to any and all outdoor photographic situations is pretty much impossible, but what I’ve found works best for me is to understand what the end in mind is for a particular composition. Now when it comes to waterfall and seascape photography the single most important component to the camera settings you dial in has to do with the shutter speed you choose.
In this video, I'll walk you through a process that completely transformed the way I look at shutter speed for my waterfall and seascape photography. When I first got into landscape photography I didn't pay much attention to the shutter speeds I chose, but after walking through the process in this video, my outlook on shutter speed was completely changed forever! The impact that the shutter speed you use has on your photograph cannot be overstated. I hope that you're able to pick up some helpful information in this week's video that will completely change the way you look at your camera settings and most importantly the shutter speed you dial in next time you're out for some waterfall and seascape photography. Thanks for watching! - Mark D.

Waterfalls or Seascapes? Which do you shoot more often?

[@wimscheenen3535]

Actually where I live neither of both. Do riverscapes count? ☺️

[@giannismaskl]

Seascapes because the sea is near my house, but to be honest I prefer waterfalls!

[@jackielarena-lacayo9884]

Hands down waterfalls! Even though I live minutes from the beach waterfalls just fascinate and inspire me ☺️

[@shubhank03]

Waterfalls. The ocean is too far away..:(. But I do like waterfalls more..:)

[@sebsmith1321]

I have done a bit of both, I prefer seascapes I would say 👍🏻👍🏻

[@shewolf6141]

Loved the video! Could you please start putting the camera settings you used of all the photos you show in your videos? People may learn the settings they prefer working with if they are shown camera setting examples. Keep up the amazing work!

[@danielwiednerfotografie663]

To be honest Mark, the Quality of your presentation is the best I have seen in years. All the best!

[@DavidVensland]

Hey Mark, I noticed on your website you sell prints. Maybe an idea for an upcoming video might be what your settings are for printing, where you have your images printed, etc. Thanks!

[@dazsmith890]

was about to comment the same thing. Eg composition, cropping and resizing for a certain frame size etc.

[@lindakrugman6534]

I really enjoy watching your videos and always learn something new. Your presentation style is very calming and easy to listen to.

[@andycoleman2708]

I agree! Every time you crop an image by dragging one side over, I'm always wondering about printing non-standard sizes.

[@johnchastain4351]

Just what I needed. I shot 3 waterfalls this weekend. I took a wide range of shutter speeds....now I need to select the ones that I like best based on what you have taught.

[@grahamegannon9708]

I have been taking many photographs recently of waterfalls and coastal seascapes. This video has really made me think twice about sticking on the 10 stop all the time. Varying the shutter speed to suit the environment of the scene makes perfect sense. Thanks Mark

[@raamangupta3277]

Hello Mark, this is one of the finest videos I have ever seen about using the shutter speed differently along with beautiful examples.

[@ottersphotography304]

Another great video with great, pertinent information Mark.

[@terrynewmanphotography]

Seascapes as lack of hills where I live so have to travel (outside of lockdowns) for waterfalls. I agree with shutter speed comments. When I first got filters I was addicted to long shutter speeds and almost blowing out the highlights completely for mad milky water effects. I’ve since enjoyed thinking more carefully about what I want. Sometimes a faster shutter can show drama but it’s really down to what you see and want from the shot. It’s great fun experimenting. Sometimes I end up liking one of the shots I didn’t think would make the shortlist.

[@williamflynn6261]

Mark, I really have enjoyed all the videos recently, first because they were done in my backyard of Arcadia National Park. Secondly they hit some excellent basics needed to enhance everyone's photographic improvement. This weeks video is of a great help mainly because here in Maine there are nearly 2000 waterfalls to photograph. Some however are only found when the seasons come on with large amounts of moisture. The many types of flow as well as what story you want tell when capturing these water flows are as you indicated here this week dependent on shutter speed. This was a great stop and think video. Added to some of your others on stacking and focus for landscape are a great combo for improving the results I am learning. Been following your journey toward full time professional and your style has replaced many of the photographers in the landscape I was following over the past three years. They have great stories teller videos but lack the technical insights you are offering all your followers. Thanks for inviting us into your thought process on landscape photography.

[@sunrise_sunshine]

Very educating video thanks for creating, I learnt something to try out.

[@janenuse1051]

Thanks! This was very informative.

[@goanheat]

Thanks for this tutorial Mark

[@goodpicsmania]

Mike, very well explained in your own clear concise way. Thank you and very useful advise here

[@himanshur7983]

I'm going on trip tomorrow and shoot for the first time with DSLR camera and found ur channel today. Thank you 🙏🏼 needed this.

[@pradeepkumar-ee5yk]

Your blog is always very informative. Thank you

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thank you!!

[@toddsulli6495]

I have to agree with one of the previous comments I’ve seen, you do an amazing job of explaining yourself! At times, some of the videos I’ve seen from various photographers ‘although amazing photographers’ just leave me feeling overwhelmed with the information. If that makes sense? Your videos are to the point and very understanding. Thanks and keep up the excellent content!

[@pattyhertogh9294]

Thanks Mark!! Nice presentation of shutter speed. 🙂

[@AdamMatthewsPhotography]

I really appreciated how you tied the shutter speed results into the story you might be looking to tell at that specific location. Very helpful!!

[@epowella93]

I have struggled with this issue until now. Your simple explanation really helps me clarify how to approach the water speed issue. I was making a binary choice of slow bad and fast good. I was not analyzing mood nearly as much as I should. Thanks.

[@PCote]

Thanks you provide great information and examples. Always a pleasure to watch your podcast. Keep up the good work.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much!

[@anamushabbir4086]

Very informative and easily explained. Thank you for your effort.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Glad to do it and thank you for watching it!

[@bernardsaumier5384]

Nice job, well explained.Thanks

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Glad you enjoyed it Bernard!

[@ionutvlad]

A simple (apparently) video, but full of useful things. Thx, Mark!

[@massdistraction6169]

Great video as usual, lots of food for thought. Appreciate your tips as always 👍

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Happy to do it!

[@johndoherty6448]

Splendid video, Mark. That's a great option -the blended shutter speed. And great examples. I live and learn. Thanks.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Many thanks John!

[@jeffb9371]

Great video! I have just recently found your channel and have enjoyed the videos I have watched. I like the way you explain things in a way that are easy to understand.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much Jeff!

[@wimscheenen3535]

Nice informative video. Always looking forward to your next one.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much! Really appreciate that.

[@perryhoward5064]

Beautiful photographs thanks for the tips

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much Perry!

[@georgewanderer]

Nice tips Mark...keep going

[@christalsigrid2450]

Fantastic information per usual Mark! Thank you so much! Lately, I have been shooting waterfalls but my heart belongs to seascapes!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks a million Christal! I’m torn between the two - not sure which I like more.

[@jacklowther5981]

once again very well taught. Always enjoy your videos. I find them very helpful.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Really appreciate that Jack!

[@donnapezzulli3088]

Love this one, Mark! I'm always playing with shutter speed to see what looks best, but now I actually have a starting point! Perfect!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Great to hear it was helpful Donna.

[@ikbenelmer]

I always enjoy watching your video's Mark. You are a calm and easy to follow "teacher" 😉. Thank you!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much for this!

[@Daddy4rime]

Awesome Tips :) Thanks Mark.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Great to hear - thanks for checking out the video!

[@sebsmith1321]

I think this is my favourite video from you, thanks a lot! I do a lot of long exposures but I definitely will look at blended photos. The waves looked fantastic in your photos at a medium shutter speed 👍🏻👍🏻

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much - this is music to my ears!

[@DirtyShoesAdventures]

Great advice! I try to "feel" the scene is how I determine the shutter speed.

[@jamesgurley1436]

I wished you had actually mentioned the exact shutter speed on each photo rather than saying fast, blended, slow. Other than that, great as always!

[@Lis77Boa]

I agree, would be good to have some data to put into perspective in your photos

[@jerinmathew2987]

What shutter speed are you using at 8:19 ? Any chance you can add the shutter speeds of these shots to desc?

[@SteveP_2426]

I've found it's trial and error and it depends on the speed of flow and what look you want. I like some structure in my flow shots so I tend to end up with a shutter speed of 0.5s for slow flows down to 0.1s for fast flows. Once you get into the 2-5s exposures it's getting very blurred. To freeze water I start at 1/250th and enlarge the image on the viewscreen and adjuse shutter speed depending on that I see in the viewer.

[@reginaschwarz7443]

Mark, please let me know what shutter speed you are using at 3:00.

[@dominicpersichetti6340]

unbelievable video mark👍

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

thanks so much!

[@clifflean]

Thanks Mark, really enjoyed this vid and this has really given me insight into the feeling of an photograph

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

It’s great to hear the video was helpful Cliff!

[@niftytwo]

Certainly a very big help to me Mark. I will pay much more attention to the details of what I can do just with shutter speed. I will experiment instead of just deciding to shoot a single shot with little or no forethought. Thank you Mark. Stay safe.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Always happy to do it Neville - stay well my friend!

[@rosssayer6524]

Thanks again Mark for some really good info, shooting mainly seascapes I tend to go with the long shutter speed and smooth out the water. I will be definitely changing the way I look at the scene and make a decision on what will portray the best of what is there. 👏👏

[@redsgenesis]

Amazing video.. 🙏🏼

[@nlh835]

Wish I’d watched this before I went shooting, the creek, this morning. Thanks for the tips!

[@vtanzi]

Another great helpful video

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks a million Vito!

[@allison_lafitte]

Hi Mark! I wanted to say that I really enjoy your videos. After about 12 years of owning my camera, I am finally taking the plunge to learn how to actually use it. The material you present is clear and very easy to understand when everything else is so confusing! Thank you!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much Allison! Really appreciate this.

[@swissheartydogs]

Indispensable as usual. Shutter speed to tell a story. Dear Mark, you made my day, again. Greetings from 🇨🇭

[@jackielarena-lacayo9884]

Your video was so enlightening for me. In watching I realized I need to practice and develop my blended shutter speed skill. I can do long exposure and fast but have to get that blended skill up to the same standard. Thanks Mark for another awesome video 👍🏻

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Its always great to hear you enjoyed the video!

[@Andrewp1949]

Many thanks Mark for another very clear tutorial on how to create different water scenes by varying the shutter speeds. Not bad for the Master of landscapes, very versatile!

[@AlexMcKean]

I agree with you on this. Great video Mark!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Appreciate it Alex!

[@nigelnewton4365]

Thank you, Mark. I agree with you about 'blended shutter speeds'. For me, somewhere inbetween works in many situations. Also, there is a difference of opinion amongst some of my clients about milky water. Some hate it while others love it!

[@glennsmith2762]

I always enjoy your videos. You explain things in a way that is easy to understand. Shutter speed has been of my stumbling blocks, but I think I have a better grasp of it now. Thank You! I also always watch your videos on my 50" tv, seeing your photos on a big screen is awesome. They are always beautiful. Cheers Glenn

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

This is great to hear Glenn! Thanks for letting me know.

[@michaelciccone]

Great video as always Mark you’ve got a skill for teaching and explaining, even when you are speaking about something I feel very familiar with you still manage to keep me engaged and often teach me something new!

Really glad you think so Lori!

[@horstschoninger1265]

I agree 100% how you see it....Thanks..

[@Justin-jh8hh]

I never thought of using a slow shutter speed for still water. Thanks!

[@deepotter6774]

Great point of view on this, Mark. Thanks for sharing your aha-moment to help us all choose our shutter speed more definitively in these varying scenes. I really appreciate it, and I can’t fathom how anyone could take exception enough to hit a thumbs-down on this, or any of your videos. It boggles the mind how the perceived anonymity of the internet brings out meaningless hatred in some people. Please continue to share your talent and insight for the many more of us who value it.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much Dee - I really do appreciate that!

[@gaylerule6707]

So glad you examined faster shutter speed for moving water detail. It seems many people think you have to blur the water to achieve "fine art" photos, producing almost cliched images. Personally I much prefer to see the dynamics of the water movement, which is what seascapes and waterfalls are all about to me.

[@JennyLaBouff]

Thanks for the tips. I'll be applying those next week as I venture out into the Smoky Mountains to capture waterfalls and cascades.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Nice! Enjoy your trip!

[@scottvk75]

I've been a subscriber for over a year. When I have time, I go back to your archives and view your videos that I haven't seen. I absolutely love the watermill and falls that you photographed in West Virginia. Do you give locations? If not I understand but I'd love to to find a place like that to shoot. Indiana just doesn't have scenes quite like that. I think winter, spring, or fall could offer some great images there. Thanks for all your posts. I'm a part time professional photographer and I still enjoy learning from others.

[@sudhakarreddym8857]

Thanks for the video 👍🏻

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Sure thing - thanks for checking it out!

[@borjarr]

Seascapes, but just moved to north spain more waterfalls than were i lived before, really exciting. Im practically at the stage of trying to get right the 3 different shutter speeds technically. Looking for a look till today, now ill look for that story. Thanks Mark!

[@Tainted-Soul]

I always knew that slowing the shutter down gave the smooth water look but you have put it in a way I hadn't thought about and the difference look you can get from one to the other is great thank you for another good video

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Always happy to do it and a big thanks to you Brian for checking it out!

[@lynngemeinhart8975]

Great video. I love Babcock SP and the mill. One of my favorite places to go to, no matter what season.

[@richard5005]

Mark, you did a great job 👏🏼 of using slow, fast, and blended shutter speed in landscape photography. Going forward, I will think about when approaching a scene of interest I would like 👍 to photograph. I never 💭 about shutting speed and how I could influence the look and feel of my final image. Thanks 😊 very much for this presentation on the use of shutter speeds. Regards Richard

[@MFP_Photography]

Love shooting the waterfalls in my area (middle TN). Too many to count. But what I love most is the approach. The hike into the area enjoying the environment, the creeks and streams you follow into the woods. I like it best hitting these areas early in the morning where you get to spend more time alone while you hike. No sense of rushing trying to make it to the spot to get your shot.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Spot on Mickey! 100% agree with everything you said.

[@renebeijer8725]

Hello Mark, Tonight i saw for the first your video. I just started with fotografie.

GREAT topic Mark ..Thanks so much from Port Elizabeth South Africa

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks Peter!

[@irajnaghash]

Thank you for the pictures you show. For me, the most important is sped time you used for all kinds of pictures you took. You said just literature not the technical aspect of shutter speed.

[@cii1072]

Nice examples. Always look forward to watching your videos. I was at Acadia last October. I took a very similar shot you did of the Bass Harbor light house. I struggled, but made it crawling and working my way down those rocks.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Yes, it’s not an easy location to move around in thats for sure

[@gprice1903]

Always good information on your channel and always presented very well. NC retired teacher, I know a good teacher when I see one!! Thanks!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

That means a lot - thank you!

[@cruishall]

Thanks for the tips. I am in a mission to take photographs of the Rhode Island coastline and I saw this video. I forgot I already saw this but I still watched it for review purposes. Funny that you also have the photo of Bass Lighthouse with a photographer in your composition, I also had my only photo of the lighthouse and there was a photographer camping in my composition.

[@chefhodgie79]

Acadia is right in my back yard and is one of my favorite places to shoot... being so close i don't get there as often as i would like! that is my goal though, to photograph there more

[@robertdavis1255]

Great advice... Most of my photo shots are of ocean so next time I am shooting waterfalls I will use your advice... thanks..

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Many thanks Robert!

[@ramoncaceres7966]

Great video. I find that the best shutter speed for water is .5” to 1.5”. It gives details and movement at the same time.

[@devroombagchus7460]

Thanks. Wonderful video with great examples! Images taken at both ends of the scale of the same object, slow/fast, would have made an even greater impact, I think. But then, I'am slow to learn.

[@JonathanGardner2004]

The shutter sound synced with your hands was a nice touch

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thank ya - all about the details!

[@tjsinva]

Great example shots!

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Many thanks!

[@gregs2466]

great job Mark! I don't photograph either river or sea. I live in the middle of the Mojave Desert, LOL! The desert is a very fun thing to photograph except between the months of July and October. Lots of contrast!

[@benjamindeguzman8509]

Thank you Mark for a wonderful tutorial. You opened up for me more possibilities experimenting on shutter speeds. I normally go for aperture priority mode even with ND filter on.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks for watching - it’s great to hear the video was helpful!

[@bioliv1]

I never heard about blended shutter-speed before!

[@pbziegler]

Dropped out of Out of Death Valley and plan to do Out of Acadia if it happens in October. Hope you plan to be there. You videos are always worth watching. And your images are inspiring. Stay safe

[@brucesmith9144]

I will never forget that lighthouse. I had a rogue wave crash against the rocks and douse me and the camera (Canon AE-1).

[@michealpociecha8351]

Most of my water shots are the ocean as I am fortunate enough to live on the California Mendocino coast line. Great for photographing. Thanks again for your excellent videos. On this one I wish you could have shown the shutter speeds with each of your photos as an example to us. Thanks again. Keep up the great work.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Thanks so much Micheal - I really do appreciate that. I was going to put the actually SS I used in those images, but I was afraid folks would get get too hung up on the actual setting since the amount of flow or movement of the water always changes the result of the shutter speed chosen.

[@VTPyzon]

Hi Mark. Love your videos. This video would have been much more useful if you have included the shutter speed used in the example photos. I still don't have any idea what shutter speed I should use to get a certain effect.

[@lloydbligh5601]

That was my exact thoughts, show me the... show me the... . Nice Photo’s though.

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Its really impossible to give an exact shutter speed to use as it depends on the flow of the water, but I generally like to use something between 1/5th and 1/50th of a second, but if I'm trying to capture a heavy flowing scene I'll often use a fast shutter speed around 1/100th and 1/250th of a second. Hope that helps!

[@VTPyzon]

@@MarkDenneyPhoto Sort of. I understand that you can't give a formula shutter speed, but if you gave the settings for the photos that would help us visualize what shutter speed gave that result. I realize that some of it is trial/error/repeat until get where you want to be. Thx!

[@lloydbligh5601]

@@MarkDenneyPhoto . Thanks for the reply, enjoyed your Photo’s.

[@aroach337]

Thanks for the info. Would be great if you could include the actual settings you used for each shot. You mention the ranges and provide examples, but a specific would help.

[@sunrise_sunshine]

Thank you so much for sharing educating videos people like me beginners to understand the concepts and techniques. I’m planning to purchase my very first DSLR which is Nikon D750 along with 85mm 1.8 + 50mm 1.8 G lens. I’m wondering is it still worth to buy this camera considering 5 years old?. Or should i invest in mirrorless which is Z6ii with kit lens. My only concern is from d750 is 1/4000 shutter speed unlike d780 and Z6ii 1/8000 and 900 seconds, I’m not quite sure this is show stopper. Purpose of buying a camera is for taking Portraits, Still, Landscape, Bird, Product photography (learning) and of course my kids. It would be really great if you throw some lights on my concern to make a wise decision.... other options I have considered is Nikon D780 with one of the lens and Z6ii with the kit lens... apart from D780 and Z6ii I have been suggesting to go with D850 with the kit lens. Thank you and looking forward to your recommendation.

[@gaetanoscalfidi]

Another great video full of tips, thank you! I think at the beginning of my photographic journey I tried to long exposure every shot where there was some water in the frame 😅 Now as you brilliantly explain, I try to decide between long or short exposure first, and then "how" long or how short the exposure should be. Usually with a couple of test shots.

[@popiemac4579]

Great video Mark. You’re an excellent teacher. Are you happy with your new Fuji or do you prefer your Sony? Also, what tripod did you take for your trip to Acadia National Park?

[@MarkDenneyPhoto]

Very happy so far - really enjoy it. I took the Really Right Stuff TVC34L

[@andrecalil]

Hey Mark, this is a great topic. As a newbie, I usually struggle with shutter speed. Question: how do you handle other moving objects when using a slower shutter speed? Imagine you're framing a waterfall in the middle some some trees. You want that smooth look on the water, but if leaves shake during the exposure, they will look blurry too, right? Bracketing and merge? Thanks for all this great content!
