Here are some more photos from my trip to Sydney in May.
While walking back from
Wentworth Falls,
we stopped at an interesting waterfall known as "Weeping Rock".
It is quite obvious where the name comes from - with the waterfall cascading over the top
of a flat rock, giving it a weeping appearance.
The photo above was taken from the walking track leading to Weeping Rock. For the phot below, I got a lot closer to capture the details of the water cascading over the edge of the rock, with the steps and hand railing in the background.
A CPL (circular polarising filter), overcast conditions, and a smaller aperture allowed me to use a long enough shutter speed to blur the moving water.
