A cascade is a small waterfall that falls in stages down a rocky slope. Although at first glance, this image may seem to be a grand view of a vast series of waterfalls, I was actually standing on a boardwalk directly over the cascade, which covers only few feet of space, and using a focal length of about 45mm. It makes a good subject for a “wispy water” interpretation. Using a relatively slow shutter speed of 1/13th of a second, hand-held, I was able to get just enough blur into the fast flowing cascade to evoke a sense of turbulence. It is not quite the silky smooth water one would get with the camera on a tripod and a longer time exposure, but in this case, silkiness would not have expressed the idea I had in mind.
