Description


Howdy all. This is another shot of Bridal Veil. I like all the green moss on this one but the water seems alittle to blown. So I think I need to learn more about Histogram or spot metering. What do you think? Any advice is always welcomed. Thanks for stopping by. Take care:0)bonita

I think you may easily add more contrast and less light on the water , I've tried it on your pict, selecting only the water part of your image and it gives more relief IMHO. Anyway I like very much how you built this wonderfull compo ! Bravo ! and ....5 stars of course !

A happy day for you. Hugs. Di.

Thank you Jean-louis and Janis for you advice. I will try that in ps. But I would like to know what I can do with the camera so I don't have to postwork so much. My camera read too much exposure off the white water I think? This happened alot in most of my waterfalls shot.

I agree with Zorg, you need to reduce the white and lighting in the water... without that, I think it's a very beautiful place for to take 10000000 picture and play with the pov and all the natural material !!! Good day my friend :)

Try bracketing your exposures to get a range and then select the best one later, or take a reading from the water area then re-compose the picture and shoot. As for the histogram just make sure you never go over the right hand side (highlights), once you do you can never get it back, even from a RAW file (which is best for maximum adjustment afterwards). You might also want to set a longer shutter speed to get the flowing water areas looking smoother (if you have a tripod). Try a quarter or half a second exposure if the lighting allows, best on an overcast day. Keep trying and having a go, the main thing is to enjoy and learn :)

Excellent shot I think and a wonderful pov! What I tend to do is expose the water then take the image into Photoshop and use things light shadow/highlight to retrieve the details in dark areas.... Oh and if ya want you could try HDR on them ;) Beautiful shot anyway! Thanks for sharing.

It appears your white balance is out of whack on your camera. Try adjusting that to a warmer temperature, or, set your custom WB by shooting a white sheet of paper.

There's nothing wrong with the white balance in this one, the camera was just fooled because it exposed for the dark land instead of the bright water. You need to expose for the water and use the smallest aperture (highest number) you have to force a slow shutter speed. And of course use a tripod, which the slow shutter speed will require. As Kai mentioned, that may require bringing out the detail in the dark areas with PhotoShop.
