Taken outside Thunder Mtn ride at D-land in California. Was strolling down this path and thought it was a good shot. Please feel free to comment. Thanks.

Love the effect of the water, what shutter speed/lens did you use?

Hello, snowape. Thanks for the rating! I used the standard lens with my canon xti. You have to go with a very small aperture, f18 or smaller depending on the amount of available light because you will be using a slow shutter speed. You need 1/6 second or slower to get a great effect. Put your camera in manual mode and make sure you have a tripod or very steady surface, I used a railing, and shoot away.
