25 Dreamy Photos Of Silky Smooth Waterfalls From Around The World

Waterfalls are one of the most stunning subjects in landscapes and photographing them well can be quite a task. Although it is a part of landscape photography, it requires even more care and attention in order to avoid blown out highlights due to reflections and the right choice of shutter speed to get the best results.

Waterfall photography would also mean having a few accessories like an ND filter, a polarising filter, a tripod, etc., handy, in order to get the best results. Waterfalls can be captured in two ways: freezing water motion using fast shutter speed or, using long exposure to get silky smooth water. The latter makes the image look dreamy and gives it a more dynamic feel.

Here are 25 dreamy photos of silky smooth waterfalls from around the world.
