Have you always wondered how other photographers get those milky shots of water? Wanted to try it for yourself, but need help. Or perhaps you love the power of the water, and want to capture the patterns produced by rushing water. Then this workshop / outing is for you! David Sweeney will guide members to several waterfall locations in the Hamilton and Dundas Valley area approx. 1 hour west of Toronto. We will spend some time at the first location going over some of the basics with regards to shooting water, the tools used to create these images, and other aspects such as safety, weather conditions, etc.
It is highly recommended that everyone attending owns a tripod, and brings it! We will use our tripods. It is also recommended to purchase a neutral density filter (ND-4 is perfect!). Either a screw on type filter, or a graduated ND filter such as the ones made by Cokin or Singh-Ray. If you do not have one, David has a couple of spare you can play with.
Itenerary for the day as follows:
8:00am - meet @ Starbucks in the Beach (Across from the running room)
9:15am - Approximate Arrival, Tiffany Falls (Hamilton), talk and demo to follow upon arrival, approx 20 minutes.
10:20am - Back to cars, drive to Washboard Falls with arrival approx 10:35am.
10:40am - talk about classifications of waterfalls - shoot @ washboard falls.
11:00am - Transport to Albion Falls
