During our POTN meetup in Olympia, we decided to make our first "Target" Tumwater Falls, a scenic area on the outskirts of town and the site of the former Olympia Beer Brewery. Here are shots of the Falls and the river that flows over them.

The bright sunlight made for very difficult conditions, with the bright water tending to blow out and not-so-good conditions for "artistic effects" like using a slow shutter speed to show "motion blur". I didn't have a neutral density filter with me to lower the light/slow the shutter speed. I used a polarizer but even that wasn't enough, so I made do. Add to that the need to lower the exposure to keep the water from totally blowing out and that meant some real post processing work to make the rest of the picture look well exposed. Oh well.

Some of these shots are "duplicates" except for the fact that I was trying different angles as well as different exposure settings.
