I didn't set out to photograph waterfalls. In fact, I don't even get that thrilled about photographing waterfalls. Especially when it's the middle of the day in the summer. However, there are some advantages.
1. Many waterfalls are only a short hike from the road.
2. Since much of the light doesn't reach them, shooting in the middle of the day is normally not a problem.
3. People seem to like when you show them photographs of waterfalls. Translates to plenty of likes on social media.
There are also some disadvantages to photographing waterfalls.
1. Many waterfalls are only a short hike from the road.
2. Since much of the light doesn't reach the waterfall, there can be a wide exposure range between the light that does reach them and the shadows.
3. People not only like to see photographs of waterfalls, they also like to visit them. This normally happens about the same time you decide to photograph them.
I actually photographed more than the three waterfalls in the three days, but after a while, they do all start to look the same.
