SLC-S29/W3 | How to Photograph Rivers / Streams / Waterfalls by @ripon0630
Hello friends, I hope you are all well. For the third week of the Steemit Challenge contest, I will be sharing How to Photograph streams. I would like to thank the organizers of this challenge, and without further delay, I am starting my participation.

How to Photograph Streams, Bhatiari
As I live in beside Chittagong Hill Tracts, there are several mountain waterfall located within our hilly area. However, going there alone is very risky, so I will share the photography of the lake Streams photographs for the contest.
These lakes and waterfalls are located next to the Hathazari link in the Chittagong BMA area. To visit here, one must go in the morning because there is a restriction on visiting in the afternoon; since it is a hilly area, there are security concerns.

The hilly, winding lakes created by the waterfall water have formed these streams. First, after reaching my desired destination, I started descending to the very bottom so that I could take close-up pictures of the water current.
The water was so beautiful and clear that anyone would feel like jumping in. From a distance, it seemed as if the water was perfectly still, but the closer I got, the more the current became apparent.
The currents were not that high, and because the water was transparent, it looked quite wonderful. As the sunlight hit the current from the opposite direction, one side of the stream showed a reflection of light while the other side remained somewhat dark.

I tried to take some photographs from the middle, between the two banks. The banks on both sides looked somewhat high since it is a hilly area, and the depth of the water here is actually quite significant. I have had the experience of getting into the water here several times; swimming in the waves of such transparent water is an extraordinary experience.

I tried to take some pictures of the current by zooming in. Unfortunately, at that time, there wasn't much current in the water; nevertheless, I tried to capture the parts where I noticed movement by zooming in. Since the streams was small, there was no distinct sound like the one we notice in large river currents.
The streams was much more visible in the video than in the photographs. I used all the camera lenses so that the moments of the streams could be captured perfectly. Although the water near the banks was calm, there was a fair amount of streams in the middle, which I tried to capture by zooming in on the video, and it is quite clearly visible.
There are several waterfalls amidst the mountains that I have visited before by planning with friends. However, since going alone is risky, I found a perfect spot to take pictures of the streams of the waterfall water flowing through the mountains and tried my hand at photography. Below I am sharing the location pin details with you.
