[QUOTE="Blacktop, post: 383979, member: 22693"] @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member-34598-elgato.html"]elgato[/URL]. Thank you for the compliment. According to the EXIF this shot was taken in May at around 6 PM, so it wasn't real dark yet but the sun was going down for sure. Also this spot is inside the woods, so not much sunlight gets through anyway. I used a CP filter to cut down on the reflections on the water. Looks like that at F/18 and ISO 100 and just a CP and no ND filter I achieved 6 seconds of shutter speed, which is more then enough to get silky water effect. (remember, that the faster the water flows, the slower the shutter speed you need, and vice versa.) Also a tripod was used. For post processing I used Lightroom 5, which is the only thing I had at the time. Normally I shoot in aperture priority mode, but with my water shots I'm more often then not in Manual mode. The main reason I put up this pic is to show that the 18-55mm is a pretty darn good lens even down to 18mm. Looking forward to your new shots. [/QUOTE]
