Looking for advice: when using long exposure to shoot waterfalls, rushing water etc, where do you place the focus? Even when shooting f22 with center focus, many of my shots look out of focus. How do I nail focus on these? Thanks for the help!

The impending sunset dragged me down to the local estuary tonight
60sec exposure across the water

This is one that was posted under a different title

This little picture was taken at Salmon Valley, British Columbia on New Years Eve. The weather was 23 degrees below 0 ...but having a thermos full of coffee and baileys kept me warm.

ISO - 500, F1.8, 13" (which seemed like a really long time while it was cold out)

A last minute shot on the way up from an adventure...turned out to be one of my favorites.

A 30 second exposure of the Angel at sunrise.

My first attempt at long exposure.

This image was created with 5~ 30 second exposures merged in Lightroom CC....I definitely needed a lot of patience and time to create this

Single 30-second exposure + six lightning strikes = AWESOME!

Taken on October 21, 2015. A severe thunderstorm just west of Jal heading Northeast...so towards me. Looking south to show the clear night sky over Jal on the left with the storm clouds on the right. Those weird tall things on the left side are the pieces of the sculpture north of town (You can drive right up to it).

This is a 4 image stack of lightning over the town of Jal. I know the horizon looks crooked, but it's actually a hill. The levels on the tripod were perfect.

The Trail Ahead sculpture always makes a good foreground for sunsets and lightning photos.

At Robert H. Long Nature Preserve, there's a man made waterfall. It's timed to allow water to run off into a nearby creek. It was golden hour when I captured this duck watching the water.

One of my favorite "beach hangouts"...the Central Coast has such fabulously diverse beaches.

Exposure: 0.5 Sec; f/14; ISO 100; Manual; Pattern Metering, Canon EOS 7D

Self portrait conceptualizing an ideal afterlife drifting the high seas remembering and reliving the best of times with my loved ones ...

Execution of this shot was pretty straightforward ... set the self-timer on the camera and then got into position, ducking out of the frame after 1 second of a 2 second exposure ... Except the wind was bad enough that I couldn't actually hear the shutter open, so I just had to count ...

One of my favorite places to shoot while in San Diego...La Jolla Shores. This place has some amazing sunset views and great rocks...and as you can see by this photo, TONS of other photographers love this place too ;)

First Post...
Selective Light Painting done last night in a abandoned petrol station here in Essex. No editing was done in this image at all. One 97 seconds exposure and light used was the LED Lenser UK P7QC.
Camera: SONY A6000
Lens: NIKON FIT SIGMA 10mm-20mm
Light: LED LENSER P7QC
ISO: 100
CONVERTED ONLY IN PHOTOSHOP. NO EDITING WAS DONE.

(SAYS NO LENS DUE TO NIKON FIT LENS ON A SONY. THE CAMERA IS USED MANUAL WITH A ADAPTER.)

This is Falling Branch AKA Kilgore falls. located in Rock state park in Maryland!The hike to the 2nd highest free falling waterfall in the state is probably one of the easiest hikes i have ever done.less than a mile and well worth every step! Be careful in winter the trail does ice over! This is a fall that cane and should be enjoyed every season!

This Photograph was taken at Meol's Beach in the North West of England, i love nothing better than creating something a bit different from the normal shot, with the use of my filters i produce this image with an exposure time of 995 seconds

Not the best image, I had to set my camera on the hood of my car since my tripod is broken. I liked the way the moon was breaking through the clouds and the flare adding the red and oranges really made it look cool.

My first long exposure ever and its of the milkyway.not the best quality. But I love the stars.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carries satellites from Launch Complex 40 in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The name comes from my viewing location for the launch, the Banana River. Exposure time was 176 seconds, ISO100 at aperture f/9. Lens was a Tamron 16-28mm f/2.8 @ 16mm. Shot in bulb mode with a remote release, so the shutter opened as the rocket started to fire and then closed when I was fairly confident it was going to be near the edge of the frame. (March 1, 2015)

at olde town Covington for fireworks...

Shot after sunset from a rooftop in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The rooftop wall kept getting in my shot since I wanted to keep it wide, so I had to balance my camera at the edge in order to get this shot. It was a long 15 seconds!

another one of my Lensbaby favourite :D

i love my lensbaby lenses,my babies are always in my gear bag when I travel.

Another long exposure at Spyglass Beach in Pismo Beach, CA. I find the trick in getting a good long expo of the ocean is to really find strong foreground elements and to attempt to hit the shutter just as a wave is beginning to roll in - makes for more interesting water swirls around the rocks.

Pre-dawn shot of a local pier from atop the cliff

15sec shutter speed not only pulled out the colour from a very dark sky, but gave lots of movement to the water as the waved rose and fell

This shot was taken from Coronado Island looking back at Downtown San Diego.
