This was the product of around 7 tries at one shot. The thing that I liked about this photo in particular, was that the different levels of the "waterfall" are all represented, and the dull white of the water is broken by the individual cane of bamboo, adding a burst of colour to the otherwise dull tones of grey and white of the water.
The photo was shot with a 70-210 lens, attached to a Canon 550D. with a polarizing filter added to attain the slowest shutter speed possible, without overexposing the photo.
To create this effect, I first had to lower the ISO speed o the lowest possible value. This is so I could obtain the lowest shutter speed possible. I changed the mode to "Shutter Priority", and adjusted the aperture to the widest possible. Once I had adjusted everything, I was given a shutter speed of around 5 seconds. I mounted the camera onto a tripod, and took the photo, while the camera was completely stable.
