Shot ideas and timing notes

Each photo spot is broken out into its own card so the page is usable as a quick visual planning guide.
Spot

1. Kent Falls Overlook

  • Best Time: Morning or late afternoon for soft lighting.
  • Tip: Use a tripod to capture the waterfall's movement with a longer shutter speed. Experiment with different angles and compositions to showcase the height and power of the falls.
Spot

2. Iron Bridge

  • Best Time: Early morning or late afternoon for beautiful golden hour light.
  • Tip: Incorporate the unique perspective from the bridge into your composition. Use a wide-angle lens to capture the bridge's architectural details and the surrounding landscape.
Spot

3. Lower Falls

  • Best Time: Morning or midday for even lighting and less crowded conditions.
  • Tip: Experiment with long exposures to create silky, flowing water effects. Use a neutral density filter to achieve longer shutter speeds and bring out the details in the moving water.
Spot

4. Upper Falls

  • Best Time: Late afternoon or evening for soft, warm light.
  • Tip: Highlight the cascading water by using a slower shutter speed and a tripod. Look for interesting foreground elements, such as rocks or foliage, to add depth to your composition.
Spot

5. Hiking Trails

  • Best Time: Early morning or late afternoon for pleasant lighting and fewer hikers.
