The late winter early spring is the best time to see it when the river is highest.

Never stayed at the lodge, but heard it's nice.

Friend went hiking in the mountains this weekend and took some photos with his iphone including some panoramas. One of the exposures for the composite decided to over expose (gg iPhone). I tried to fix it for him, but holy crap, there is no dynamic range in a jpeg at all, especially in the blue range, and whites decimate data.

Oh well. Sucks for him.

No, canceled in the second season, just like twin peaks.

there is no filter or effects added to image, thats my straight raw file converted to jpg

i had water on my lens from the mist off the falls and the light hit that causing the spots of lens flare, the haze in the photo is the sun hitting the mist and the blur of the water is because it was somewhere between 5-15 second exposure depending on which photo it was.

I use a Neutral density filter on my lens (not post production) to cut out some of the harshness of shooting in direct sunlight

sorry my friend this is straight photography, the only thing i did in post what bring my blacks up a tiny bit to get some detail out of the rocks which is no different then burning/dodging in the darkroom on my film photos

Originally posted by clay well the falls/water looks like crap. probably too long exposure then. joss' seems more correct (even though out of focus). yours almost looks like 2005 gaming printscreen (water was shitty in games earlier). the trees and the grass also looks weird. im quite sure you have some filters on there.

You really can't see that's all just the sun reflecting onto the lens (which is wet) and the pictures being a tad over-exposed and badly focused

edit: looks like a nice place, citric

No, its pretty clear its a long exposure causing the effects you see, its just annoying because the falls create a lot of mist, which you know, it being water, does all sorts of crazy things with light, some good, some bad in terms of the photons reaching the sensor. A ND filter (lens filter, like on the physical camera body) allows you to take extremely long exposures in broad daylight, so the effect is sort of strange. That being said, the first one looks like it has water droplets on the filter (even if it didn't thats the impression), which gives it a "messy" feeling that doesn't sit well with me.

Snoqualmie Falls is tough to shoot though. Honestly my favorite photos of it are from above (which requires a plane or a helicopter, not exactly weekend trip fare) or is shot from the west side of the falls further north, or further north at river level. That requires a bit of hiking though and if you've never been there you need to plan it out a bit (its not technical hiking, you just need to know where to drive to and park, and where the trails are).

Personally I think that an ultra long exposure of the falls is not going to be that pretty. The lip of the falls is really rough and in mid summer the flow rate over it is not high enough to cover the entire fall, which makes it get cornered down in the draw in the center. The real majesty of Snoqualmie is in the late-winter/early-spring when the snow melt in the mountain is causing the river to surge. The falls become so violent looking, its an amazing demonstration of the raw power (lol) of nature. The noise alone is staggering. A long exposure of any sort kind of tames the falls, and I've never really liked them that much, it makes it look weaker. There are better falls for that in the region (not really that close to Snoqualmie though). Multnomah Falls, east of Portland on the Columbia River gorge is a good falls for ultra long exposures. It is a tall skinny double fall, a usually placid middle pool between them. You can get the horse-tail effect really well on it. There are also a number of other falls up and down the river too that are amazing (you do have to hike to some of them though, including wading through water in tiny little cuts in rock).

Oh well, I know Citric just got her ND filter and this is experimentation, and running water is pretty much the best thing to experiment with long exposures in daylight. I have been thinking about getting an ND filter for a few months, but my interest in it is more for use in low light, giving an even longer exposure for certain things where I want more time to fuck around or have something occur (or filter out lower intensity light, for example fireworks, filter out the streamer, just get the burst, etc).

On another note, I am supposed to go flying with a friend this weekend to take some photos. That should be fun. Need to think of some things to shoot. His plane is a low wing though, so thats gunna be kinda interesting. He was like "Don't worry, we'll just do really steep banking turns".

Add in the effects


You can't fool me, I'm a professional and I can tell because pixels

Yea, fuck Africa (or wherever that falls is), lets make it look like WA!

I think my brother was taken there for drinks on the 4th of July, he said it was nice. Course its always nice when you got rich Japanese people paying for everything, AND you get paid to go with them.

Is your brother an escort?

Originally posted by Halcyon+On+On Is your brother an escort?

Technically yes. He is a tour guide in Seattle for a Japanese travel company. He often gives very personalized tours for small groups or individuals.

On the 4th he was taken to one of the nicest seafood restaurants in Seattle, the guy bought 5000$ worth of alcohol (he bought some bottles of wine to take with him), then they went to Snoqualmie Falls for after-dinner drinks, then back into Seattle to a strip club till like 4am.

and then swallowed his cock whole like the proper bitch he is. Gator got his money

I really enjoyed the train rides there as a child. There is also an awesome train museum down the road aways.

So white people.

A student sent me some pics he took in class. I wish I knew what the hell I was talking about, because I look unusually serious and pensive

do you always sit on the desk?
