This is my entry to the white is white contest by @dmcamera. Today's theme is white water in nature.
This photo was my first try with a ND1000 filter; the water is not actually white in reality, but with the ND-filter, I was able to capture the movement of waves during 5 minutes creating this photo of smooth, white water. I got up early in the morning for this shot and took this photo from the shore of Shoal Bay on Maria Island which was close to the national park campground I was staying at.

The camera I used to capture this photo is a Sony A37 (APS-C) with a Sony DT 18-135 mm F3,5–5,6 SAM lens.

Oh man, you got me to click on all of your other links. I'm like a kid in a candy store. "Oooh! Otavalo! click" and "Ooh! Cuba! click
Thanks for telling us which camera you use etc. I really want to start taking pics with something other than my phone.

Finally someone is reading these old posts! :D Thank you for all your nice comments!
With a more professional camera, you get many options that you wouldn't have with a smartphone, but I am always amazed by how good smartphone cameras have become.. My camera was actually an entry-level DSLR, I just recently upgraded to a better one.

haha I'm glad you noticed I'm reading old posts! Sometimes I wonder "will they ever know I'm trying to talk to them if I comment on old stuff?" Newb question.
Wow, really. You're making me seriously think about it...if you work wonders like that with an entry level, I can't imagine what you'll do with an upgraded one.

Actually, the benefits of an expensive camera are not that significant; for shooting photos for the web, in most cases, you won't see a difference between a 500$ and a 5k$ camera. They can only play their advantages in low-light or when shooting high resolution for large prints, but they are less compact and less suitable for travel photography.

That's a lot of skill in one photograph. And it turned out so beautiful like it's from another world :) I wish to learn photography too. I'm too lazy and rely on auto settings :D

Thanks for your comment :) Photography can be really fascinating, but even with auto-setting you can produce amazing photography if you take photos consciously and look for nice motives and framing.

Well , I'm a basic ignorant, don't know much about the art of photography.
But whatever you are doing there it looks like magic!

Thanks! This was actually my first try with such a strong ND filter and since I didn't carry a tripod the composition is not perfect, but happy you like it! I loved your long exposure of the Moeraki Boulders btw!
