Turning Water Into Milk
Yeah, when speaking about long-exposure photography, sometimes it doesn't take so long to motion-blur running water :)
Or falling water, to be precise.
Here, it was a bright day, so I have to close the aperture to the max and use a ND filter on my tripod.

El otro día justamente mirábamos con mi familia fotos del norte de Islandia y esos paisajes son increíbles. En mi experiencia, controlar la luz a f/22 y usar el filtro ND durante solo 1.3 segundos es clave para lograr esa textura en el agua sin quemar la imagen.
Lo que aprendí al ver tu foto es que 1.3 s a f/22 bajo el sol de Islandia convierten el agua en una seda líquida; ¿qué densidad de filtro ND empleaste? Sin vueltas, la vida me enseñó que la precisión del tiempo marca la diferencia.
