Thank you for reminding us to stay at a location and work it. I'm often too impatient and move on without fully exploring the scene visually. Nice photos too.

I love waterfalls. I love photographing waterfalls. When I go to the mountains, I always think that if nothing else, I can always photograph the waterfalls.

Sticking to one location for a period of time pays off. Showing the results of different shutter speeds was helpful and the isolated images were my favorite. A series of abstracts from this shoot would make for an interesting wall display. You certainly demonstrated that patience and practice result in creating some beautiful images. Thanks for the video.

Michael, you are probably my favorite photographer that I follow (most are in Europe). Of course, you have great subjects (fog, clouds, sea, waterfalls, etc.) and I was raised in Southern Cal but moved to Southern Nevada in middle school and still here. I always wanted to photography the Golden Gate Bridge and love your work on that bridge too, but I get jealous that you can go there all the time with different weather patterns. I grew to hate the desert but when I seriously got into studying photography and bought great equipment, I fell in love with the desert too. No matter where you live, you can explore your environment and fall in love with it and cause other to love it too with your photos. Just thought I would show my appreciation for your art. Thanks

Chefs kiss as always. I always wonder how you do it. I seem to fight my sigma 100-400 when it comes to these kinds of shots. No idea why but it always misses focus even manually with focus peaking on. But images like this are why I hold onto it. I only dream of finally getting stuff like this. Thanks for always being an incredible inspiration.

Awesome video as usual. It's helpful to me to see the area you're working in without a refined composition first, so I can better learn what to look out for. Especially for long exposures it's cool to see what the scene looks like beforehand.

I have to give you credit for my recent purchase of the Sigma 100-400mm for Sony. I’ve been struggling for months to decide on a long zoom. As much as I liked the idea of either the Sony 100-400mm or the 200-600mm, I just didn’t like the size and weight. Seeing all the amazing images you’ve been able to capture with the Sigma helped me to decide on it. Couldn’t be happier with it. Optics are great and the size helps make it easy to bring with me.

great video and some great shots. Would you say filters are essential to fully explore waterfall photography?

Thanks! Hmmm well I would definitely recommend them as they open up a lot of possibilities for different shots. But you can get away with photographing waterfalls if you do not have them, you would be a bit more limited though.

I know that ND filters are best for long exposures. Would it be best to use a CPL filter for fast shutter speeds and water-flow?
@MichaelShainblum4 ай бұрын
CPLs are for cutting out reflected light. This can help foliage look more vivid and cut out reflections on water. So it really depends on what you are shooting. For those first long exposures the CPL helped to simplify some of the rock in the shot. But for most of the other images in the video I didn't need the CPL.
