Jungle Vibes
For this week's Waterfall Wednesday I'm sharing one of the most popular waterfalls I had the pleasure of photographing in Tasmania while I was there for 2 months. I happened to be there during their winter which is when it actually rains down in Australia so the falls were pumping, so much in fact that standing in front of it for 30 seconds meant you were soaked! Even standing where I was when I took this photo, I was soaked after a few minutes and must have wiped my lens off a dozen times. A 1 second exposure was all I needed to get nice silky smooth water, coupled with a circular polarizer to cut down on glare from the water. If you're taking long exposures of waterfalls, a circular polarizer is one of those must have tools, it really is worth its weight in gold.
One of the benefits of seeing this place in the winter, and Tasmania in general, is there's hardly any people out in the National Parks, a real god send when you're taking landscape photos. The peace and quiet is an added bonus too.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy my Waterfall Wednesday photo! Happy hump-day as well!
