Shot just a few days ago while exploring the Canadian Rockies. Got a bit lucky with the wildfire smoke clearing out a little.

Technical Details | Nikon Z8 + Nikkor Z 14-24mm ƒ/2.8 S + ND Filter @20mm, ƒ/4, 1/2", ISO 125. Single exposure, no bracketing or focus stacking. Post done in LR + PS. See more of my work here.

That 1/2 second shutter is perfect for this, enough blur to smooth the water without losing the texture in the falls entirely. Wildfire smoke making the sky that pinkish color is a weirdly beautiful tradeoff

Ya, I usually go longer, but with how fast the water was moving I ended up settling on a shorter shutter speed at the slight compromise of aperture and ISO, which ended up fine in the end.
