The magic of water

The contest is suitable for photographers who have pictures with an emphasis waterfalls shot with different techniques and speed. Here participants present their unique footage, by which to present their favorite waterfalls in the world.

They are presented as a challenge for photographers. The natural beauty of the water makes them an ideal object for photos. They are beautiful and often on difficult for illuminating places. Dynamic objects, we know that the movement is a challenge but also a real opportunity for more dynamic pictures.

While it appears like a simple task, taking pictures of them and making the water look like silky smooth, can hinder everyone, especially if you do not have the proper equipment. If you want to capture moving water and it should be smooth and soft, you need to use a tripod.

After you place your camera on a tripod, you can try to reduce the shutter speed. Reducing ISO of camera to the smallest number not only improves image quality but also reduces shutter speed. Falls are usually found in narrow canyons, so most of the time you will need lens with wide-angle zoom.

Depending on the source of water of the waterfall, it may look different in all seasons. For example, those in which water comes mainly from melted snow are often dried or reduced to a minimum at the end of the summer. They are best for shooting in late spring or early summer, but in early spring they are usually too stormy. So it's a good idea to find out the source of the water and visit the place when appropriate for photos.

Participate with your best photos and we promise great rewards.
