Today I went to Hardraw Force waterfall to take some pics for my exam. As you may or may not notice, I have now invested in a polarizing filter and an ND filter. All started out very well and here are a few photos of the waterfall

When we got to it there wasn't a soul in sight, then some old people appeared and walked right infront of my camera, then another photographer arrived, then another, then a bus load of kids (I hate kids!) then another group of old people!!

With a bit of sun.....

Other parts of the river

My baby doggy

She snuk in the river when no one was watching and started swimming round. I went for a little paddle with her but she's nearly sixteen now, so she got a bit worn out and thats when disaster struck! She was trying to climb out, but couldn't, slipped on the rocks and was falling back in, so I ended up jumping in the ice cold river to rescue the dog! lol! I don't know, the things you do for animals, eh?

Me after the heroic dog-rescue! lmao! Was bloody freezing!

Wont all fit in one post...

.....here are some other landscape shots I got for my project....

All in all, a good day out! lol

You're very good at this photography lark , you know

Thanks lol

Loz, you are really getting good. I reckon these are the best shots I've seen you post.

Very nice pics 10/10

Your dog's quite good at portrait shots as well which is nice

Hell...There's some SUBERB pictures there Loz.. 10 out of 10.

Thanks everyone

Your dog's quite good at portrait shots as well which is nice

Yeah, she's ace infront of a camera, always has been. She's so bonny

Dog pic #1 & pic 4 on the second post are particularly good (the others are good too, but these 2 stand out IMO)

BTW, what's a ND filter?

Cheers

ND = Neutral Density filter

Getting better with every post:thumbup:

Love the saturation and exposure of the shots. Nice slow shutter pictures too:)

Thanks some of them are polarized, I got bit addicted

Nice pics. Like the water effect. That using a slow shutter speed?

Yeah, slow shutter with ND filter

I dont think the water was very cold.

I dont think the water was very cold.

Agree. No obvious clues to it's coldness was there?

*Sigh* As previously mentioned elsewhere Mr Gooch, I had accustomed to it by then and there was no breeze down where I was so it was quite warm. when I flung myself in after the dog, however, I couldn't actually breathe lol

some crackin photos there loz what camera is it your using

Nikon D80 with 18-135 lens. waterfall pics done with ND filter, some others with polarizer, some with both lol.

Ref the last pickies.....Briskoda meets BayWatch........:P:rolleyes:

I was waiting for people to post some crude posts! How immature!

One thing to say about that.......

WET T-SHIRT COMPETITION!!!

Joking aside. Those pics are excellent and I know nothing about photography and still love them.
