Shelving Rock Falls near Lake George, New York.
With April showers comes not just May flowers but the perfect time to photograph waterfalls. I recently came upon this excellent article with tips on how to photograph waterfalls called 7 Effective Waterfall Photography Tips by Australian Photographer, Ilya Genkin. Sure wish I had known about Ilya’s tips before photographing Shelving Rock Falls last year.
If you live in Central or Western New York, visit my friends at Foot Print Press for their waterfall book with detailed directions to 200 waterfalls. Foot Print Press has other books on biking, hiking, paddling, walking and other outdoor activities around New York state.

Thanks for all these tips, Scott. I’d like to do some exploring of that part of the state and a waterfall tour might be just the thing!

Don’t know where in the New York you’re heading to but, if you can get to Letchworth State Park, you won’t be disappointed. 🙂

You did well, even without knowing about those tips.
We’ll be vacationing in NJ and NY (if all goes well!) this summer. I can’t wait!

Hope your vacation plans work out. Getting out and seeing the US is our reward for working the rest of the year. It’d be a nice break from Texas, too. 😉

It’s been awhile since I’ve photographed waterfalls. Right now, it is very dry where I’m at, and not too many waterfalls to be had… mini ones, at that, if found. There is one place at a creek I like to shoot, and with the snow and rain we’ve had lately, perhaps the little falls at the creek are flowing. I’ve gotten a few good shots there this past autumn. I always use a polarizing filter. Very nice waterfall capture, Scott. 🙂

Thank you, Anna. Hope to see a spring time waterfall photos from the Surface’s soon. 🙂 Yeah, I’m going to use some of these tips the next time I’m shooting a waterfall. I love the vibrant colors Ilya, Terry and Bernie get.

I don’t know how “wild” it is in NY but I will be exploring some of it over the months to come. You can bet there will be some waterfalls, too.
