A clear morning: 30 seconds, ISO 1600, f/4 17mm.  I used a flashlight to paint the trees.

It is a long story….

The Secret Life of the Barracks Road Fountain

Do these images cool you off?

The long exposure (which captures the dreamy water) requires VERY low ISO, Very tiny aperture (F/22), AND a 4x neutral density filter.  Absent any one of these elements, and the shot would be way over-exposed.   The frozen droplet stuff uses the very fastest shutter speed and very high ISO, else things would be UNDER exposed.

It was HOT out there…
