Birdie and Wildman

 I wasn't going to post this shot because we don't show our faces, but we decided to go undercover and put it on.

 One night we set up the tripod on the American side of the falls and tried to get a picture of us. When the falls light up the tour buses come and you have to be patient to get your shot. As the night got darker the exposure times changed and I misjudged how long we had to freeze ourselves in front of the camera. I jumped out of the shot a couple of seconds early, then Birdie followed.  Popup LinkBirdie and Wildman

    I still think some of the coolest shots start out as mistakes or accidents!

    What was the different shutter speeds on the last two? Very distinct difference in the water. Loved them both.

  • Birdie
    Good work with the water shots.

  • Sopris
    The first shot is awesome!

    Very neat shooting - I especially like the last three - the water looks so pristine.

    Don't understand not wanting to show your face but respect your right not to. I liked the ghost-like effect of the first one. It's my favorite. Can't wait to go back there. Great shots, guys!

    I really liked the 'ghost' shot of the Wildman & Birdie. I think this would be an interesting addition to your record of that trip. I haven't been to the falls since I was a teen. I need to go back again soon.
