Great Smoky Mountains

Richard Cleaver from Toronto, Canada

Hi Daroru. The silky effect on the waterfall is achieved through a combination of factors. One is time of day. In this case I shot the frame quite late in the day. Around 8:00pm (about 45 minutes before dark). The other is using aperture priority mode. I shot the frame at f22 and the exposure was about 6 seconds. A tripod is required. I also set the mirror-up on the camera and used a remote to trigger the shutter. Hope that helps!
