A lot of people are surprised to learn I'm completely self taught in my #Photography. One of my greatest instructors was, and still is #Waterfalls. They have such variety in a single location that allows you to practice multiple key components of photography - metering, shutter speeds, the importance of leading lines etc.

This image is one of the first waterfalls I took, way back in 2019!

A large waterfall flows off the edge of a ledge into a deep canyon wedge. Defined light beams shine down from the top left cutting through the waterfalls most and haze. The waterfall is on a slanted granite bed giving it large rapids throughout the top of the falls before the cliff. The forest in the background is obscured by the heavy mist of the falls as well.

I have to dump some of my #Ilsetal photos I took in early March. Thank god it's #WaterfallWednesday. 🤭

Yes, it's not Niagara Falls, but the #IlseFälle #cascade is very pretty to look at and you can #hike along the #Ilse river as it #cascades down 120 metres. Looks like a fairytale #forest – if you ignore all the hikers that flock to this place (just like we did 🤡)

A long-exposure shot captures a cascading stream flowing over moss-covered rocks in a woodland. The water appears silky smooth due to the slow shutter speed, creating a sense of motion. Sunlight dapples the scene, highlighting the textures of the rocks and the flowing water. Evergreen trees and bare branches frame the upper portion of the image.

I hope frozen water counts for #WaterWednesday

An image from 2022 of the infamous Abraham Lake in #Alberta #Canada with its frozen methane bubbles trapped just below the surface.

The bubbles from my understanding are a result of organics buried in the lake bed after it was created by the nearby manmade dam. This place has unsurprisingly become a huge photo attraction as a result.

A mountain sits in the evening sun as sunset starts. High stratospheric clouds are lit softly pink. The frozen lake in the foreground is full of white and opague filled bubbles creating amazing little patterns in the ice.

Storm Jocelyn Lands, Isle of Harris (2024). We waited a good few hours at this spot, hoping that the oncoming storm would create enough sea swell to crash dramatically over this giant rock. The tide eventually came in at sunset, and we got a symphony of conditions — waves, light, and a double rainbow! One of the most exhilarating moments I've ever had the pleasure of photographing.

a giant wave crashes over a balancing rock on the coast of the isle of harris in scotland. a rush of white water forms an arc leading the eye out to a double rainbow in the distance, as the sunset light hits an oncoming storm.

Sunset at the beach during the low tide. My fav sport - chasing fleeting sand patterns. Sometimes it feels like being a hunter - I need to setup where I think the patterns will form and wait. And then be quick before they are gone with the next wave.

It is Wednesday! My favorite day of the week, because not only am I halfway to the weekend, but, it's also #WaterfallWednesday

This weekend I'm planning to chase #Waterfalls and will hopefully snag some new images. My #LandscapePhotography started with #Waterfalls so they have a soft spot for me.

These four are my personal favorites. The standard that I try to hold my future attempts to. Here's to #RealPhotosofRealPlaces

A high flow waterfall zigs and zags through the middle of the frame. Trees and shrubs border the canyon the waterfall has created. With small plants growing on the shelves created by the waterfall over years of flow. The waterfall is split by a large rock outcrop that has a tree growing from it.
Deep in a Canyon, just the tail end of the waterfall can be seen here. But, the remnants of its flow in the form of bubbles and waves streak the river that flows through the canyon. The moss covered granite ledges create giant walls on either side trapping the river to a narrow path.
An enormous waterfall Cascades over multiple levels of granite rock. Curved, trunk like rocks frame the image diagonally, covered in thick moss and. The warmth of the sun highlights the top of the frame, leaving the bottom cool and dark. I always struggle to shoot this waterfall as timing is important, too much flow and you can't stand anywhere near the base due to the volume of water spray.
An absolute favorite of mine. With the main falls cascading the many small ledges of the rock face to the right, and the smaller vertical water drop on the left providing balance to the frame. The cold blue water. This waterfall has been one of my favorites to visit for years.

The Pit (2021)

A difficult shot to pull off, id explored this waterfall a few times before managing a photo I liked. Straddling a small rock on the edge of the cliffs drop with my tripod balanced between a single leg and the strap around my neck I took this frame.

I particularly love this one because of the unfamiliar perspective of a #Waterfall it gives. Looking down, from the top.

A waterfall plunges off a 60ft drop into a circle of barren rock. The perspective from the top shows the cleared pit that the waterfall has carved out. The rocks below are surrounded in a circular grove of trees and shrubs. The remains of a large tree is seen at the bottom, all of its bark stripped from the water.
