Irish Waterfall

Long Exposure Photography

Waterfalls are often the subject matter that landscape photographers love most. Here I spent several minutes setting up and photographing this waterfall in the midlands of Ireland. Not famous or well known and with a drop seen in the image above of just a few feet, less than a metre, they certainly are not as impressive as some of Ireland’s other waterfalls such as Aasleagh Falls and Glencar that I have written about here.

Yet it has a unique character, the water falls over many parts of the scene - wider than it is high - and the surrounding trees, still bare after the long months of winter, almost cover the stream.
