Waterfalls.....

[Drizzt]

I'm heading out tomorrow back home to the White Mtns. of New Hampshire and will be doing some hiking and what not. I know many of the trails I will be on run next to streams and what not many of which have large numbers of waterfalls and with this being the end of spring the snow fall with be melting etc.... So what's the best way to catch the "softness" in these?

A tripod and a slow shutter speed. The slow shutter will allow the running water to blur and the tripod will keep the rest of the scene sharp. If its windy you may get some blur in trees and foilage, a tradeoff.

WIll look forward to what you bring back. Watch out for those wet rocks and don't test the water worthyness of you camera!

thanks, I'll keep an eye out for that one. The slow shutter speed is what I figured didn't know if there were any other tips/tricks of the trade.

If it's too birght out and you're not getting a satisfactory shutter speed (ie, you've got the lens stopped down and iso as low as possible, but it's still too fast) you can use a ND filter to force the speed slower.

Overcast skies, and dawn/dusk situations are prime for this. Using a tripod/slow shutter is key to capture this.
