- Tripod or balanced on rock in my case
- Aperture Priority
- Aperture set to smallest (f22) for maximum depth of field and long auto-exposure
- ISO set to lowest (ISO 100)...
- focus somewhere in the middle to hopefully get everything sharp
- Resulting automatic shutter speed was 1.3 seconds (to get silky water motion)
- use GIMP or Photoshop (or whatever) to remove bikini girl with clone tool so your wife doesn't think you are blogging the bikini girl
- Early morning, late afternoon or any lack of direct sun is better
- I read an article that claimed since the onset of digital photography, 30% of the picture is composed in the field and 70% is in photoshop type post processing...I believe it!
The crooked original in most of its glory (I had to remove you know who so I wouldn't be demolished when she got home):

Hmm, "bikini girl: cloned" didn't appear in the EXIF data when I looked at it. :)
Thanks for the info Paul and good idea about the bikini girl!
by the way looks like good fly fishing water up there!
