One more. Barred Owl shaking it's groove thing. Nice talons too.

I enhanced this "long exposure" motion blur by using firmware 1.8.1 feature IBIS High resolution shot on a moving target. Original file size 242MB.

A different kind of motion, and a different sort of blur. The wind moves the water surface which makes the sharp reflection unsharp. I took many of these at Stepstone Falls in Rhode Island. I have a couple of posts about the location and more of distorted reflections.

Cemel, I love the effect and they have a Monet-like quality. Excellent.

I love that you chose Black and White and such nice leading lines.

While this may look like your run of the mill Long Exposure water shot, it started with a 1/60th exposure at f/9, iso 100.

Then I had an idea. I haven’t really experimented with multiple exposure on my R6II. I didn’t want to get my filters and tripod for this quick road side attraction. So I braced the camera on a fence rail, and set up for a nine shot multiple exposure. Settings were as above. F/9, 1/60th, at ISO 100. Changes were H+ instead of single shot and Multiple Exposure, Continuous Shooting, Average.

Not quite as smooth as an ND with a single exposure, but it kind of maintains the turbulence of the water and conveys motion as well. Notice the exif reads the same as a single shot.

What do you all think?

Hi Stephen,

I feel your pain at finding some nice water, but lacking a tripod/ ND - I think the result you have achieved here is very pleasing, so well done to you!

I would also encourage you to check out This Tutorial from Anthony Morganti - if you use Photoshop/ similar it could be another option to consider.

Mr. Photographer was, I think, the first YouTube photography channel I followed oh so many years ago.

With a misty start and mid-morning sun being forecast, I headed for the woods earlier in search of angel beams (I'm still searching... :rolleyes: ). Having found neither mist, sun, or (consequently) angel beams I was left looking for some 'volunteer birds' with my trusty R5/ RF70-200 f/2.8...
