sorry to quote pics but what kind of exposure are we talking about with a shot like this during the day?
i was trying a bunch of different things up on the sunshine coast this past weekend and anything that i assumed would give the effect of the water like this became too washed out with too much light?

You need a really small aperture to get the shutter speeds slow enough to create that kind of blurring. In daylight, you may need a neutral density filter to reduce a good chunk of the light coming into your camera to allow you to get to these slow shutter speeds.

you can try using your sunglasses if you dont have an nd filter handy although the lenses may be too small for your camera (works great for my cellphone even though its got a built in nd filter)

For the ones posted/quoted, the exposure I had was f/16, ISO 160 (my lowest ISO is 200 before it goes to the Low ISO settings). I was also using a 7-stop ND filter to get 1.6 seconds and 2.5 seconds.
It also wasn't the best time of day as the sun was pretty high (3-4PM I think?). The waterfall itself is still a bit overexposed and there are quite a lot of shadow areas.

I used my sunglasses this weekend at Lynn Canyon.
iso100, 35mm, f16, Maui Jim sunglasses, at least they were polarized lol. You can see the curve on the bottom corners from the sunglasses
Recently came back from a road trip through the Canadian Rockies. Amazing scenery!

freesole, that's some next level animal shot right there. Love the context and the subject isolation. Usually not a fan of the blurry foreground but that bokeh and noise are so pretty, like film grain. Great stuff. Which telephoto?
Or did you just ninja up to that deer? When I got a shot of a deer, that bastard just stared right at me and that didn't make for a particularly interesting shot.
That deer picture is one of the best I've ever seen, no lie! MAD PROPZ!!! Please do share the story of that shot, and how you got it? Looks almost like a wide'ish angle shot, maybe 24-35mm or something? Remote setup? FUCKING AMAZING WORK!
