Waterfalls

Thanks, Click!

 Thanks, Eric, I think that's my fav, too!
Yep, you set the CPL first, then adjust the ND as needed. Pretty cool set, very high quality.

It looks great in the photos... I'm going to half to sell the house and live in a carboard box soon

Shoshone Falls, in Twin Falls, Idaho.
Same setup as the above dinky falls pics.

I removed the pics that I did with LR mobile. They looked weird when I got home and viewed on my PC.
Added a pic with the cotton candy effect, then a freeze frame.





Often referred to as the Niagara of the West, Shoshone Falls is a must-see attraction in Twin Falls, Idaho. At 212 feet tall and 900 foot wide, Shoshone Falls is one of the largest natural waterfalls in the United States, surpassing the height of the famous Niagara Falls. Shoshone Falls is located on the Snake River as it carves its way through a deep basalt Canyon on its way to the Columbia River.

LOL! I stayed nice and dry, up high on an observation deck.

They probably make it hard to get down there near the rocks don't they?

Yes, as far as I could see, no trails down to the bottom. However, many people rent kayaks and paddle around the bottom of the falls.

I think this is typical, but sometimes there will be a hidden path. Kayaking with a camera seems like a good way for me to have a stroke or heartattack

Me, too. Doubt I would be willing to do that!

It was a few years ago, but I think @Click shared a photo of himself in a kayak with a 400 f/2.8 or 600 f/4. When I was in my early thirties, I stopped a knife fight in a dive bar. I felt confident after that, but suddenly I felt like coward when I saw the courage in his photo!

It was a 500 f4, I like to live dangerously.

Seriously, there's no danger, I've been kayaking for over 30 years and I've never capsized by accident. Of course, you have to choose the water and the weather conditions. I use a sea kayak for my photos.

I couldn't remember clearly, but I think I could never try it! You are bravery incarnate! Is a sea kayak more stable?

Yes it is and you can store the camera inside the cockpit when you're not using it.

Here's a little video clip of the falls. Be easy on me, I'm no videographer! LOL
