Whenever there's significant rainfall in Gardendale, Alabama, the lagoon that forms atop Baines Dam, coagulating the waters of Newfound Creek, begins to overflow. And when there's a whole lot of rainfall, that overflow spill over the face of the stairstep dam as a lovely waterfall. I early August we had several days of thunderstorms, and enough water to cause this waterfall.

In order to achieve the long exposure and milky tones that I was hoping for, I placed a piece of welding glass in front of the lens as a neutral density filter, allowing on 15 second exposure on what was a pretty bright, slightly overcast day. This technique is described elsewhere on the blog and has been used with varying levels of success.
