Pick a waterfall - Seattle Waterfall Garden Park


Seattle's Waterfall Park is a wonderful little pocket park hidden away near Pioneer Square. It's a great place to stop, relax, eat your brown bag lunch and listen to the waterfalls.

I had a little time before a lunch meeting and started playing with my camera; same shot, different settings to see which results I liked best and to get to know my camera better.


I have tended to take pictures of moving water rather fast, to capture the moment but all the books and articles talk about taking water pictures at a slower speed to get that smooth look.

Here I moved from very fast 1/800 second (top) to 1/5 second (below).
Which do you prefer?
