Tommy! This is Jenny Brock, Kyle's wife. I told you I check your site :)! Anyway, can I ask what type of camera/lens you use for these? I'm just starting to get back into photography a bit and these look phenomenal. Also, I read that you put your shutter speed on 30 seconds to get this look...do you have to keep your lens/camera perfectly still during that time for it to come out like this? Thanks! Great to see you and your wife at the wedding! Sorry my questions are so elementary!

Hey Jenny!....I am glad that you check my site...I was very suprised to find out that more than 2 people were actually looking at it.

I have a Nikon D200. I used an 18-200mm Vibration Reduction lense for these photos. These pictures had a shutter speed of approx. 20-30seconds. Because of that you do need to keep your lense extremely still, this will capture the motion of the water while leaving the sharpness of the stable rocks, trees, etc. I used my Tripod to do this and turn off the vibration reduction on my lense.

Anyways keep the questions coming. I love talking photography, so any questions are great!
