Description
During my stay in southern Kentucky last week, I did manage to get in a few waterfall hikes. Princess Falls was definitely on the agenda, as I had seen many beautiful photos of it. The falls are found at the end of an approximately mile long hike from the Yamacraw Day Use area along the Big South Fork River. We passed multitudes of wildflowers along the way to the falls. Unfortunately, by the time we arrived, the falls were bathed in morning sun, which aren't the optimum conditions for waterfall photography to say the least. Disappointed, I weighed my options. Any kind of attempt at a long exposure would've been futile. as I only had one 3 stop ND filter in my bag, and my lens only has the capability of stopping down to F/16. I decided to try a few shots from underneath a cool rock ledge, shielding the lens from the bright morning sun for the most part. I spent probably all of 10 minutes shooting before heading back down the trail to shoot another smaller set of falls which was still in the shade. I can't wait to come back to see this one when conditions are slightly better!
