Today was definitely a learning day, and and an interesting day. This waterfall is part of a creek that runs along Brick Mill Road off Hwy 140. It looks beautiful in the shot, but there were very few places where I could set up without trash and graffiti being in the shot. It really was a shame. I didn't shoot here for long because someone had taken a giant crap and threw all their toilet paper about 6 feet from where my tripod was sitting. There was a man at the top of the waterfall sitting on a rock with his feet in the water when I climbed down to the bottom. We said hello to each other and I went to set up. When I climbed back to the top, he was sleeping in nothing but his boxers. Pretty creepy, but I did learn some things about exposure compensation. It was still pretty bright outside, but I had to use a slower exposure to capture the flow of the water. I pulled this one off without any compensation using a 1/3 second exposure at f/22. However, I had to compensate the exposure on some other ones up to a full stop.
